… and the Arctic Ice Cap melts

The Arctic Ice melts
And cools the warm North Atlantic Drift so it stops
So the U.K. is no longer mild in winter….
… We get ice and icebergs!

Canadian Forests
Like cold climates but lie south of the Arctic
Trees here would suffer in warmer climates and drier conditions i.e. they would die out

The Maldives and other low lying islands
may be submerged
To us in the U.K. Global warming might be an inconvenience but
To the people of the Maldives it is a matter of life and death!

The Sahel semi-desert drought zone
May get even drier
And become a desert as the Sahara spreads southwards.
They people may be forced to move
To become refugees
Living in camps, begging for food, in the capital city

As beaches get drowned
Tourists stay away
And hotels lose trade
Tourism fails to bring in money.

As the Tropical seas get warmer
So the risk of hurricanes increases
Every late summer period.

People in richer countries have insurance
But the extra damage
Causes insurance companies to go bankrupt
Or causes the companies to charge more so people can’t afford insurance
Insurance industry worried about global warming
