Question
What is the effects of global warming?
Solution
Effects of global warming are:
- As the increase in temperature will be uniform all over the surface of the world. There will be serious climatic changes. This will bring various changes in wind and rain pattern.
- Higher temperature will cause a rise in transpiration. This, in turn, will affect the groundwater table.
- As the climatic belts shift from the equator towards the pole, the vegetation would also shift away from the equator.
- Insects and pests will increase in the warmer climatic conditions. Thus, pathogenic diseases will multiply.
