Climate change affects the whole earth, some things worse than others but everything. For Example Climate change can cause the melting of glaciers and polar ice caps. The melting of Glaciers and polar ice caps can cause major problems around the world. This article can shine light on all the problems that Climate change can do to them.
Climate change can cause our glaciers and ice caps to melt, therefore causing sea levels to rise. In the arctic sea levels rising can cause animals to lose their homes, such as Polar bears and walruses. This can cause a problem because it will force them on land and will create more human interaction with them. With the melting of the glaciers and ice caps causing flooding, Coastal communities will flood and will lose billions of dollars. The damages can destroy their economies and can destroy peoples homes. Another problem that can occur is the increase of destructive storms and hurricanes that will take place around the world. Keeping the Glaciers and ice caps is a must to keep the balance of the world. Climate change is the reason that all of these things can happen.
This is just one of the many problems that happen when Climate change happens.
