What is the effect of global warming on coastal areas of Bangladesh?

Much of Bangladesh's coastal lands are flat and low-lying. Global warming is warming the oceans, so the water expands and the sea levels rise. Melting ice from glaciers on Greenland and Antarctica is also raising sea levels. This will mean Bangladesh's coastlands will be flooded with salt water, killing all crops for ever.


Can Global warming lead to flooding in coastal areas?

Yes, global warming can lead to flooding in coastal areas due to melting ice caps and glaciers raising sea levels, as well as increasing the severity of storms that can cause storm surges. This can result in higher tides and more frequent and severe coastal flooding events.


How does the effect of global warming on ocean disrupt disrupt the water cycle?

Global warming has the effect of increasing the water that is evaporated from the Earth's surface. This fills up the clouds and produces more rain and snow in humid areas.


How will global warming personally affect you?

Global warming is already raising sea levels. Many coastal areas are going to flood. We will have to abandon many towns and cities. Fragile people are especially at risk from heat waves.

How global warming can lead to the Flooding of low lying area?

Global warming expands the oceans, so sea level rises. Water from melting snow and land ice also raises water levels. Low lying coastal areas will flood.


Global warming effects of the peoples health in China in Global warming?

Global warming plays some serious roles in China and Japan, as they seem densely populated with human activity many of their areas. Since most areas are already humid, global warming with use of the "greenhouse effect" is pretty much 2x more potent than anywhere else. With this happen, lung disease case will be severely numerous in the future.


What regions are going to be affected by global warming in the year 2050?

Various regions around the world are projected to be affected by global warming in the year 2050. These include low-lying coastal areas at risk of sea level rise, regions prone to extreme heatwaves and droughts, and areas susceptible to more frequent and intense storms and flooding. The impacts of global warming will be widespread and varied, with some regions facing more severe consequences than others.


What landmasses will be under water if global warming continues?

If global warming continues, low-lying landmasses such as parts of the Maldives, Tuvalu, and various coastal regions worldwide are at risk of being submerged due to rising sea levels. The exact extent of land loss will depend on the rate of global temperature rise and the effectiveness of mitigation efforts.


How can global warming lead to the flooding of low-lying areas?

global warming is a threatening problem in the world. As the plants are affected by the global warming the roots which hold the soil will be affected. at the same time climate will be changed. thus even very little amount rain can cause the flood.
