Global warming is a hard fact that probably none of us would wish to deal with. But let's face it, it is real and it is happening at a pace neither one of us can comprehend and control. With the increase in temperature over the years, it's no wonder that ice are melting over at North and South pole. But there are many things about global climate changes that are still unknown to us, what we do know is that if this continue, inevitably human race will be wiped off from the face of the earth.

So exactly what sort of dangers that global warming pose?

Melting of ice over at each end of our poles does not only affects animals living there. It has a global effect in which sea level will rise, as well as the temperatures. When that happen, animals either lose their habitat, or are unable to cope with the sudden change in temperature and thus will be extinct. Food chains will also be disturbed, given that we humans depend a lot on our marine life to keep the balance in check, it will not be a pretty scene.

With that in mind, can you imagine if the ice do not stop melting and the sea level just continue to rise? Within a short period of time, it's not hard to predict that countries and island that are situated on lowly lands will be completely covered in sea. Currently, there are countries that are already reporting a rise in their sea level, as well as island sinking a couple of inches each year.

Aside from food and land, they have also predicted that more and more hurricanes and thunderstorms will happen as a direct result of it. Unfortunately not every countries have the ability to detect and prevent it from happening, making it a grim scene for many people around the world.

With a change in climate and temperature, it could very well affect the chance of spreading new disease that were evolved from this climate change. Diseases and viruses evolves, can our technology and scientist keep up to combat them?

Rise in temperature will also no doubt have a negative impact on various crops life. Higher temperature will promote more rain falls and also less snow. Certain crops varieties that depends on cold weather will certainly suffer as we get hotter and hotter each year.

So if you're still wondering if global warming can kill us, yes it can, in fact it has the potential to end our civilization if we do not do anything about it! So start doing your part by cutting down on waste and carbon emission to the face of the earth.
