Global climate change refers to the average long-term changes over the entire Earth. These include warming temperatures and changes in precipitation, as well as the effects of Earth’s warming, such as:
    Rising sea levelsShrinking mountain glaciersIce melting at a faster rate than usual in Greenland, Antarctica and the ArcticChanges in flower and plant blooming times.
Earth’s climate has constantly been changing — even long before humans came into the picture. However, scientists have observed unusual changes recently. For example, Earth’s average temperature has been increasing much more quickly than they would expect over the past 150 years.

One inch may not seem like much, but every inch of sea level rise covers 50-100 inches of beach. If the ice keeps melting, global sea level could rise more than 20 feet. That would put a lot of coastlines under water. Whole islands could disappear!

Here we have a sobering glimpse at what Scientists predict the world to look like in 2050, if the nations of the world fail to confront this issue.
