Scientists already know for sure what will happen in the future. Industries will continue to cause many changes.
One important change in the future will be the temperature. Scientists say that by 2050 the planet will have a temperature increase of a 3 to 4°C. It seems like nothing, but it will have enormous effects on ecosystems.
By 2050, the sea level will be 25 centimeters higher. With higher temperatures, the defrosting process in Antarctica will become twice as fast. The glaciers are going to melt. This will result in an increase in the sea level. Another consequence will be the floods. The likelihood of flooding in coastal towns will rise more than nine times. The economic losses will be greater than 50 billion dollars.
The growth of the Himalayas will be another change. In 2050 the highest mountain range is going to be 165 millimeters higher due to the movement of the Indian plate below it. The nearby towns are worried about the possibility of earthquakes in the area.
