2. - What is the meaning of sea level
rising?
sea level is a measure of the average height of the ocean's
surface, so sea level rising means the increasing of the water
average in oceans and seas surfaces.
3. Since the mid-19th century, sea level has been rising.
Today's warning comes from US researchers at Rutgers University.
The analysis showed that during the past 5,000 years, sea levels rose at
a rate of around 1mm each year . But in the past 150 years, sea levels
are rising at 2mm a year.
The rising tide is expected to make oceans 40cm higher by 2100.
4. Causes of sea level rising
Natural effects Human activities
The normal melting Burning of fossil fuels
The developing
of ice sheets
and producing CO2 of industry
Global warming
5. How the global warming effects
on the rising of sea levels?
Causing a rise in the
earth temperature
Makes the big icy
mountains melt fast
Then sea levels will
rise quickly when
the ice melt fast
6. Disasters and damages of sea
levels rising
•The range & the number of floods Increase.
•Loosing of habitats such as coral reefs that provide food
for many animals so many animals will die.
•Overwhelm the costal zones under the water so many
people will die .
7. Floods in Bangladesh, Asia
• Bangladesh is a hot country. It’s also very wet. For
nine months of the year it can rain very heavily and
its great rivers flood every year, watering the fields
and covering them with fertile mud.
• But today, the floods are more violent and harder to
predict. They’re especially dangerous for Bangladeshis
who live in the rivers on sandy islands called chars.
Floods wash away their homes and sometimes the
islands themselves vanish under water.

9. Typhoons in Philippines, Asia
• The Philippines are a group of islands in
the Pacific Ocean. They have high
mountains and great natural beauty.
• But they also have some of the worst
typhoons in the world. Today, they get
about 21 typhoons a year and scientists
think that global warming could be making
these storms worse.

11. The effects of sea level rising?
•Everyone will affected negatively in some way by the sea
levels rising.
To myself In future, if I don’t try to find a solve to this
problem with other I will put myself in the
danger of floods, typhoons and displacement
To the Most of the UAE cities are sitting on the
UAE Arabian Gulf coast so these cities will sank
when the sea level rise.
To the When sea levels rise more floods and
world typhoons will cause so the privation will
spread around the world wide.
12. What can we do?
• We probably can’t stop sea levels rising
altogether, but we can learn how to live
with it and slow it down.
• The rising sea levels are due to global
warming. Reducing the global temperature
is apparently the only practical solution.
13. • We can’t stop using fuel, but we can
reduce using it.
• If we work together we will rid of the
problem.
