During the March holidays, I found an article entitled, ‘Scientists present latest news on climate change’.
After reading this article I was really worried. It really seemed like the world is going to come to an end. What ever effects that were predicted by the scientist in the 19 century have slowly started to happen now.
It was written that, "Climate scientists are preparing for bad news as they review the latest data on global warming at a conference this week in Copenhagen. Like stated in the researches, global warming will arid the climate and regions will grow drier, rising seas will flood coastal areas, melting glaciers will flood communities downstream and then dry up the source of future water supplies, and up to 30 percent of all plant and animal species may become extinct".
"However, since then new evidence has emerged showing that ice caps in the Arctic and Antarctic are melting, which threatens to dramatically raise the level of the oceans and flood coastal cities and low-lying islands.
Global warming has already taken its effects". Things that were expected to be happening in the future are happening now. Everything is happening twice as fast. This is definitely threatening especially to the people living near the coastal areas.
