During the last ice age, the ice receded due to changing climate.

How might global warming affect the glaciers AND the world in the future?

  1. well since global warming isn't affecting glaciers right now, i don't see it being a future problem. For example, that ice shelf/glacier that broke off last week. Al Gore and his army claimed that global warming caused it. what actually happened was the shelf was located near an underwater volcano that was active, heating the water near the shelf. Around that time, small earth tremors happened in this area as well, breaking the shelf off. since winter is coming in antarctica (where the shelf is), the shelf has already frozen back onto where it originally was.


  2. more of the same.

  3. The ice will melt which will result in higher sea levels and some places being under water.

    It will be hotter.

    Global warming will accelerate the rainfall cycle which could accerbate the water shortage.

    There will be an increase in disease and allergens.

    It will cause more species to become endangered or extinct.

    Increased risk of fire.

    Food shortages.

    Could cause another ice age.

  4. Nothing ,everyone would be working and earning money for food as dere will be food shortage

  5. How *might*? As in a possibility that global warming is true after all?

    Well, it should melt the glaciers. The world in the future, will be dead. If it gets like 3 degrees hotter, the trees will stop giving oxygen which will cause all animals to become extinct. The trees will start dying and giving out carbon dioxide which will cause the earth to get hotter. The water will start evaporating world wide and won't rain anymore :(.
