Impacts of Climate Change

1. Affect on humans - food scarcities, heat stress, increased air pollution.

2. Decreased arctic sea ice cover.

3. Projected flooding in coastal regions.

4. Ecosystem changes - e.g., plants flowering earlier during the year.

5. Longer growing seasons - could harm native
plant and animal species.

6. Snow pack decreases on mountain ranges - affects fish populations,
hydropower, and water availability.
