Global warming question 2?

Question

what are 3 possible economic disasters that may result because of Global Warming.

justify your choices by their predicted impacts on the environment, human and animal life (deaths) and damage to property

Answer 1

1. Recession

2. Depression

3. Economic collapse (Mad Max like world)

The degree or impact is entirely depended on how we act now.

As for our impact on species today we are losing an estimated 50,000 species a year and if we do not make significant changes in our behavior we could potentially lose over half which very well might collapse whole ecosystem as keystone species will be missing.

Answer 2

A compiled list of all the sources can be seen here.  The total amount of cooling ranges from 0.65C up to 0.75C -- a value large enough to wipe out most of the warming recorded over the past 100 years. All in one year's time. For all four sources, it's the single fastest temperature change ever recorded, either up or down.

Everyone needs to look up the facts on

Answer 4

Global warming will not cause any economic disasters; history has shown that warmer temperatures create prosperity.  During the Roman Warming Period and the Medieval Warming, increased farm production due to longer growing seasons led to accelerated economic growth.

That being said, the hysteria over the myth of man-made global warming will lead to both economic and humanitarian catastrophes, including:

1.  High taxation- proposed carbon taxes will transfer large amounts of wealth from working people to the political classes.

2.  Pollution- as oil and coal become more difficult to use due to legal constraints, people will resort to dirtier fuels such as wood and animal dung.

3.  Famine- restrictions on energy use in the developing world will hinder agricultural production.

Answer 5

3 POSSIBLE DISASTERS THAT MAY RESULT DUE TO GLOBAL WARMING;

1.HUNGER- due to low production of food supply from

                      agriculture and meat products.

2. FLOODS - due to imbalance   ecosystem.

3. WIDE-SPREAD DISEASES -  due to impact of changing  

                                                           climates.
