What will happen to the world if temperature rises by 2 degrees Celsius, which equals 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit? Do we really have a global warming crisis? In this video we show you 3 alarming global warming facts everyone should think about in less than 60 seconds.
The 3 global warming facts are:
1. Water will be a larger problem
2. Species will lose their habitats
3. Tropical corals will vanish
Summary of the global warming effects in the video for 1.5 °C and 2 °C:
Heavy rainfalls: 1.5 °C = +17% | 2 °C = +36%
Additional people suffering from water shortage: +271 mio | +388 mio
Malaria areas: +10% | +15%
Forest fires in Mediterranean region: +41% | +62%
Insects with natural habitats cut in half: 6% | 18%
Dying of tropical coral reefs: 70-90% | 99%
So I guess the answer is “yes”, we do have a global warming crisis.
The statistics come from the German book:
Machste dreckig – Machste sauber: Die Klimalösung
Thanks for watching the video. Fingers crossed that not too many people will ignore these facts. Spread the word!
