Some of the negative consequences that have been postulated if global warming increases, are:
A: More heat mean more energy. More energy could mean a total meltdown of the icecaps on the poles. That in turn would not be so good because sea water levels would raise. It would mean big problems for countries like Netherlands and part of Denmark. Many coastal cities could/would be flooded. New Orleans, New York, and of course other seafront cities as well all over the world. The extra amount of energy all over the world due to a warmer climate could make thunderstorms more ferocious. Today's Twisters could turn into super-twisters. The warmer climate will kill off a lot of plants, insect and animal life all over the world, both in the sea and above. Coral reefs will be destroyed. The effect of rising seawater temperature can today be seen many places where seaweed dies off at a rapid rate. When seaweed dies it leaves the small fish without protection. The whole balance of nature is to a certain degree changing.
A: They say as the earth warms, and the ice melts at both or each south and north poles the oceans will rise as well as their temps, the water that is evaporated into the atmosphere will cause more violent storms that is 1 example. 2nd example, the earth will become warmer, making it harder to grow food there will be in some areas less rain, and last the effect it will have on wildlife will be very negative. Just 1 more item that I thought of is the effects of global warming on the human body is also the increase of skin cancer. Some say that all the above is starting now.

Probably the most worrying consequences of global warming will be the rise in sea level, especially in countries such as Bangladesh or the Netherlands, which have large areas close to or below sea level.
A:The potential results of temperature change can affect populations in many areas of the world. The main outcomes could be:
There are various possible consequences of global warming. For example, the ice caps will melt and many parts of the world will be underwater.
The planet being significantly warmer and the oceans rising from the glaciers melting
some possible effects of global warming is sea levels could rise.Also the weather will start to change.
everything about global warming is bad.
The consequences might be that we do manage to stop, or at least slow global warming. But if we don't try, then global warming definitely won't stop.
It is not possible for the government to be hiding global warming from citizens. However, it can be said that the government is not creating enough awareness campaigns which will prevent global warming.
Global Warming.
True global warming does not decrease temperatures. So, either the model for global warming's effects is hokus-pokus, or global warming as presently claimed, does not exist. Some global warming followers will have you believe that global warming makes the weather "act crazy". If true, then it is not really global warming, is it.
Global warming in itself isn't pollution - global warming is the gradual warming of the earth. However, global warming was caused by carbon dioxide pollution in the atmosphere, but global warming in itself isn't a pollution. yes it is a pollution

Reduction in secondary pollutants is not a possible consequence of global warming.
Much, much more than the cost of attempting to stop global warming.

It is possible, but that is difficult to say, as there is no single consensus on the magnitude of the impact of global warming.
The major force behind global warming is the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, which releases carbon dioxide. The consequences of global warming are climate change and all the dangers that this will bring. See the related question below.
Yes, it is possible for the ozone layer to recover from global warming. This can be done by stopping the emission of greenhouse gases.

There are many long term consequences. Global warming, floods etc are some of the examples.
No. As far as we know the US has no plans to protect its population against the effects of global warming. Building sea walls around all its low-lying cities is probably not possible. Perhaps the US is working on serious plans for how to stop global warming, but we've heard little so far.
Comparing global warming to war is difficult because they are different types of issues with different impacts. While wars can have immediate and direct consequences in terms of human suffering and loss of life, global warming has long-term effects on the planet, including rising sea levels, extreme weather events, and damage to ecosystems. Both global warming and war have significant negative consequences, and it is important to address and mitigate the impacts of both.
