Global Warming:
what is global warming ?
Global warming is when the earth becomes hot and its tempreture keeps increasing.
Is it that dangerous or is it something that will soon go away?Why should i care?How dangerous is it?
Results :
1) Global warming will lead to melting iceburgs and northern and southern poles which will higher our sea levels
2) Animals would have to change their habitats and the ones that live in tundra's would soon die of heat
3) It will kill us humans by heat waves and spreadin disease one of them is skin cancer,malaria and yellow fever.
4) We will use up all of energy on electric devices like air conditionars because its so hot and on water supplies.
