[Nestor Chayelle]: Why Are We Having Climate Modifications?

[Nestor Chayelle]: Polar Bear in melting pole 

Global warming has a very close relation with climate change and weather behavior, causing different modifications to it.

Different predictions have been made of what will happen to the weather of the world over a given period of time and the results speak for themselves:

• Precipitation will increase by approximately 3 to 15%.
• The desert areas will be much warmer, but less humid, which will have serious consequences for humans, plants, and animals there.
• Half of the glaciers will melt, possibly the sea level will increase between 0.4 and 0.65 m. Therefore, many coastal areas will disappear.
• By becoming deserts, many farmlands could disappear.

Global warming is a consequence of industrialization and human development based on clean energies, which directly affects the climate, and by extension, the ecosystems and life of all species, including man. 

[Nestor Chayelle]: Global warming

If the sea level rises only a few tens of meters, kilometers, and kilometers of the coast would be drowned under water, it is estimated that more than 70% of the world population would be affected. And this is just to give an example because global warming affects negatively man in many other ways, for example, causing droughts that prevent good harvests.

Global warming is causing the gradual and inexorable transformation and destruction of various ecosystems. One of the most affected areas is the Poles, where certain species are beginning to have many difficulties to survive. Many of us will have seen the image of the fully scrawny polar bear climbed on a small portion of drifting ice. That is precisely what causes global warming.

Therefore, global warming also causes changes in the attitudes and behaviors of animals, always guided by the spirit of survival. There are, for example, phenomena such as migrations, that is, the species go to another place moved by the desire for survival in search of an environment more adapted to their characteristics.

[Nestor Chayelle]: Warming

On the other hand, it also causes other types of changes, these more in the long term also aimed at survival, but which have to do with biological and evolutionary changes. That is, many species evolve over generations to adapt to the new circumstances of the environment. Some may be adapted, the stronger, the weakest do not usually survive.

For all these reasons, curbing global warming should be a primary objective because, for the moment, we have only begun to glimpse the consequences it may have. Either we do something or in the not-too-long-term future, these effects are likely to be even cruder.
