Ice sheets and glaciers will melt, and the level of the oceans will rise, inundating many lowland areas (e.g. New Orleans, Venice, the low countries in Europe, and many coastal areas around the world). Also, more greenhouse gases will be trapped, promoting an even further rise in temperatures, and (potentially) the eventual conditions that will make life unsustainable for human beings.

What happen when the distance between the sun and the earth changes?

If the distance between the sun and the earth changes, it can affect the strength of sunlight reaching the earth's surface. This change in distance can impact the earth's climate and temperatures. However, the earth's distance from the sun does vary slightly throughout the year due to its elliptical orbit, affecting seasons but not significantly impacting life on earth.


What will happen if all the oil on earth gets over?

If all the oil on Earth were to run out, there would be significant impacts on global energy production and transportation. Society would need to transition to alternative energy sources such as renewable energy (solar, wind, hydro) to meet energy demands. This transition would require significant investments in new infrastructure and technology.


Most earthquakes happen-?

Most earthquakes happen along tectonic plate boundaries, where plates either collide, move apart, or slide past each other. These interactions create stress in the Earth's crust that gets released as seismic waves, causing an earthquake.


Where does the earth get its heat and light?

The Earth gets its heat and light from the Sun. The Sun emits vast amounts of energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation, including heat and light, which reaches Earth through space. This energy is essential for supporting life on our planet.


Would a person choke on earth in the atmosphere?

Yes, if a person's airway is blocked or constricted in some way while on Earth, it is possible for them to choke. This can happen if a person tries to swallow something too large, if food gets stuck in their throat, or if their airway is obstructed by a foreign object. Choking can be a serious medical emergency and requires immediate intervention to clear the airway and restore breathing.
