- But no, a sudden global warming-induced climate shift could not cause the kind of instant wild weather mayhem depicted in the movie. In this respect, The Day After Tomorrow is science Fiction with a capital F. The laws of meteorology get seriously abused here. Consider the book the movie is based on, The Coming Global Superstorm, by Whitley Streiber and Art Bell.

Are the Effects of Global Warming Really that Bad? But for the world in which we live, which climate experts project will be at least eight degrees warmer by 2100 should global emissions continue on their current path, this small rise will have grave consequences, ones that are already becoming apparent, for every ecosystem and living thing—including us.

Facts The current and future consequences of global change. The potential future effects of global climate change include more frequent wildfires, longer periods of drought in some regions and an increase in the number, duration and intensity of tropical storms.aken as a whole, the range of published evidence indicates that the net damage costs of climate change are likely to be significant and to increase over time. Global climate change has already had observable effects on the environment.

- Past climate changes led. to extinction of many species, population migrations, and pronounced changes in the land. surface and ocean circulation. The speed of the current climate change is faster than most of. the past events, making it more difficult for human societies and the natural world to adapt.

If You Think Fighting Climate Change Will Be Expensive, Calculate the Cost of Letting It Happen Politicians sometimes argue that fighting climate change is bad for the economy. But climate change itself is bad for the economy. Investing in climate resilience is not only a national security priority, but an enormous economic opportunity. The share of national GDP at risk from climate change exceeds $1.5 trillion in the 301 major cities around the world. Including the impact of human pandemics – which are likely to become more severe as the planet warms — the figure increases to nearly $2.2 trillion in economic output at risk through 2025. Climate change is also a critical geostrategic issue.

What does past climate change tell us about global warming? Greenhouse gasses – mainly CO2, but also methane – were involved in most of the climate changes in Earth’s past. When they were reduced, the global climate became colder. When they were increased, the global climate became warmer.

6 Ways Climate Change Will Affect You Since 1970, global demand for heating has decreased, while demand for cooling has shot up. Higher temperatures over the next decade, mixed with a growing global population, will continue to increase energy demand, accelerating the loop of emissions that cause climate change that cause more emissions.

Future Climate While the climate record has no perfect analog for the changes we expect as a result of our dramatic increase in heat-trapping gases since the Industrial Revolution, we can use a climatic event that happened 55 million years ago—the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM)—as an example of our potential climate future.

Predictions of Future Global Climate Changing Severe Weather: Some climate scientists believe that hurricanes, typhoons, and other tropical cyclones will (and may have begun to already) change as a result of global warming. Warm ocean surface waters provide the energy that drives these immense storms. Warmer oceans in the future are expected to cause intensification of such storms.

Climate change on pace to occur 10 times faster than any change recorded in past 65 million years, Stanford scientists say But what might be even more troubling for humans, plants and animals is the speed of the change. Stanford climate scientists warn that the likely rate of change over the next century will be at least 10 times quicker than any climate shift in the past 65 million years.
