As humans continue to contribute to climate change, consequences will continue to increase. Maybe these statistics will motivate you to help make a change!
- On average, the Earth’s temperature has risen 1.62 degrees warmer than it was in 1951 (climate.nasa.gov). Temperatures will continue to rise until the Earth is unlivable for humans.
- Excessive evaporation and precipitation.
- Glaciers will continue to melt in the ocean, leading to a rise in sea level (climate.nasa.gov). This will lead to habitat loss for many species living on the ocean edge
