If global warming continues at its present rate:

  • Sea levels will rise flooding towns and cities and coastal cropland permanently with salt water.
  • Heat waves will occur even more regularly than now, killing thousands of people. (70 000 people died in the European heat wave of 2003.)
  • Animal and bird habitats will change, forcing them to move, adapt or die. This applies to humans also.
  • The economies of many countries will collapse, unable to deal with climate events, flooded cities and destroyed croplands.
  • There will be millions of climate refugees seeking safer places to live.
