Social and Economic Effects of Climate Change

Positive Effects

Climate change effecting how business operate

  • As drought continue, farmlands south of the Sahara desert dries up and becomes a desert
  • Climate change can bring warmer temperature
  • The length of the growing seasons will increase
  • Farmers will be able to increase crop yields and grow crops that require more heat
  • With high CO2 in the atmosphere plants will grow larger, which would be good for animals who depend on plant life

Climate change is beginning to effect the economy and our society.

Climate Change impacting the Economy

  • Storms are expecting to become more severe, it could make oceanic shipping more dangerous in addition, damaging marine life
  • A shortage of food supplies in developing countries causes the price of food to rise
  • Species will migrate to higher latitudes or elevations where the temperature will be similar to their natural habitat.
  • If global temperature rises, demand for cold weather products, such as heating oils might decline

Peoples Point of View On Global Warming

Those effects include:

Negative Effects

  • Drought will make it difficult to obtain water in drier climates
  • The ways in which businesses and society operates
  • Some people argue that global warming is just a natural climate cycle.
  • We do not understand Earths Climate that well to make predictions about the future.
  • The Climate is getting warmer but this will have more benefits then costs.

  • As sea level rises, saltwater mixes with freshwater which causes species to relocate or die.
  • Positive and negative effects of climate change

Glaciers

  • What people think about Global Warming

Climate change can cause severe weather events such as

  • Dry weather stops plant growth
  • Heat waves can cause people to suffer heat exhaustion
  • Hurricanes can cause serious damages

Social impacts of climate change

  • Positive Feedback Loops and Glaciers.

Glaciers are a big part of global warming.

  • Many disease such as malaria can spread as climate become warmer
  • If a land is flooded or becomes dry people will be forced to move out order to meet their basic needs, this could result a conflict like traffic jams, overpopulation, food demands etc.
