Global Warming is affecting life on Earth. As we all know, the main effect is the increase of temperature resulting in the rise of sea levels and severe weather changes. What you might not have known is global warming can and already did spread diseases in many places. Along with some other things.The following are some effects of what G.W is affecting or might in the future:
- Animals: They are getting affected mainly because of climate change. All living things on Earth depend on their habitat for shelter, food and water to survive. Therefore, when the climate changes, some are forced to migrate, putting them at risk.
- Houses: Hurricanes and floods can destroy houses, which forces people to pay alot of money in order to fix them back.
- Coral reefs: They can only survive in a narrow range of temperature, salinity and water quality. Therefore, high water temperatures and less sunlight because of sea rising can kill them.
- Alternative energy: a lot of money is being spent on projects, research,development, production and distribution to stop emissions.
It is said that many diseases will spread if global warming isn't solved as soon as possible. As temperature rises, disease-carrying mosquitoes and rodents spread, infecting people. It has already spread and the disease killed many people over the years. They seem to come out at high temperatures which means we will be expecting them a lot over the next years. The diseases they carry are Malaria,Dengue fever, Encephalitis, Yellow fever, Filariasis and West Nile virus.
