GLOBAL WARMING
The floods and storms we’re experiencing now will become more frequent.
A 73 year old villager in Tuvalu an island in the Pacific Ocean does not need scientific evidence to convince him that the sea levels are rising because beaches of his childhood are already sinking and the crops that used to feed his family have been poisoned forcing him to leave and seek refuge somewhere else.
This is partly because the icy glaciers are melting and the sea is expanding causing sea levels to rise at an extraordinary rate causing small islands like the Tuvalu mentioned above and many other low-lying landmasses such as the Netherlands, Florida, Shanghai, Calcutta and Bangladesh to sink forcing millions of people to sick refuge elsewhere and some researchers believe that even if pollution could cease today, the effects of past abuses to the atmosphere could still last for another 100 years.
For instance, the provinces of Salzburg in Austria were hit hard by severe rainstorms and at Vienna's Südbahnhof station a thunderstorm caused a train accident that injured several people and in Germany Residents fled their hometowns in thousands as some were rescued from the floods by boats or helicopters as never before in the history of the Federal Republic have towns and villages been evacuated to such an extent.
