The Future of Nature: 2075

Day 4: Global Warming

This is the second last post on the effects of man-made disasters on the world. Global warming has affected the Earth a lot more than we had expected. The Arctic is now gone, all of it has melted. Large areas of Southeast Asia and other coastal areas have been completely flooded by the rise in sea level around the world.

In the U.S. and many other countries, deserts of various sizes have been formed and are expanded constantly. The absence of water has encouraged wild fires and droughts. Heat waves have become a lot more frequent and you can't even stay outside for some days in the summer because the heat is so intense.

The issue of poverty around the world and the lack of food is present everywhere in this future world. There are few places where crops can be grown successfully because the weather is so dry and hot.
