Summarize What would likely happen as a result of global warming.?

If global warming continues, scientists predict that weather events like storms, floods and droughts will become more severe and more common. Ice caps and glaciers will melt causing sea levels to rise. This will affect low lying countries, especially in the Pacific Islands.

What percentage chance does the IPCC give that global warming is not anthropogenic in nature?
As per their latest (2007) report, less than 10% (they claim it is very likely [with a probabilty greater than 90%] that most of the observed increase in global temperature is due to man-made carbon dioxide emissions).It is expected that the certainty will increase more when their next report is due in 2014.
What is the most likely place for a earthquake to happen?
In Europe
What age is does Transient global amnesia affect?
The most likely ages in which to experience TGA are the 50s and 60s
What is most likely to happen be 2023?
There are many things that are likely to happen by 2023. For example, artificial intelligence will have made major strides by 2023, and personal computers will be much more advanced.
What changes are likely to happen when ocean waves meet with land?
It can cause a Tsunami a huge sea wave.
What is one likely consequence of global warming?
Global warming of The Oceans has already occurred.
Was the Santa Catarina flood caused by global warming?
most likely not. just because global warming is occurring does not mean that it caused the flood. in the past flood aways happen, not just because of global warming. in my school before the charts were way up, it flooded, not because of global warming, but because the school was built on a filled up marsh.
What cities are likely to be gone from global warming?
Global warming will not take out any cities, but those at risk are most likely coastal cities.
Could the whole ocean evaporate due to global warming?
It's not likely but could happen, no one really knows for sure
Can a building freeze because of global warming?
No. That wouldn't make sense anyway, seeing as it is global WARMING not freezing! The building is more likely to melt :)
Global warming is mostly likely occurring due to an increase in?
yes
What process is the least likely to affect a regions climate?
Global Warming
Do evolutionists believe in global warming?
Not necessarily, as belief in evolution and belief in global warming don't really have anything to do with each other. That said, a person who believes in evolution is probably more likely to believe in global warming, as they tend to listen to what scientists say, and scientists are the biggest advocates for global warming being real.
Why is all this bad weather happening in Ireland?
Global warming, most likely
Does global warming affect intertidal zone?
global warming would indeed affect the intertidal zone, it would affect the water levels, salinity and most likely temperature.
What will happen if forests will disappear. Relate it to global warming?
That depends upon where they disappear to. If they are used in construction, the carbon contained in those forests will still remain sequestered. More likely, however, the forests will burn down, as our climate changes. This will release the carbon they contain into the atmosphere, accelerating the rate of global warming.
How big a threat is global warming?
Chances are, global warming is going to get worse, however, we cannot predict exactly how rapidly this will happen or how bad it will get. My guess is that I will not live to see severe global warming, but the next generation after me probably will. And severe global warming could be very destructive. The immediate threat is that the ice caps will melt, and the sea level will rise a great deal, causing massive flooding of coastal regions. Many other problems are likely to result as well. Things could get very interesting.
