Global Warming may be a term almost most are conversant in . it’s one among the most important issues we are handling . within the upcoming years, heating can affect us in many treacherous ways. the primary and foremost effect is polar ice caps melting. because the temperature increases, the ice at the North Pole will melt. Once the ice melts, the primary effect are going to be an increase in sea levels because the melting glaciers become oceans. consistent with the National Snow and Ice Data Center “if the ice melted today the seas would rise about 230 feet”. It affects many low-lying areas like Netherlands .

On one hand, we are planning on making life possible on Mars. But we still must believe how our livelihood goes to be within the next few centuries.
