The consequences of global warming can no longer be ignored. Islands are sinking into the sea. The entire world knows the disaster to be caused by global warming. As the sea level continues to rise, many countries including Bangladesh face the prospect of partially of fully disappearing into the sea. The prospect of Bangladesh losing 20 per cent of its islands would spell disaster for at least 20 percent of its over 150 million people. At least twenty per cent of the earth's land space is similarly threatened by global warming. The consequences for the countries to be submerged by the sea partially or fully would be disastrous. Global warming would not spare even some of the cities of relatively more developed countries. Among them, Bangkok, Manila, and Jakarta also face the grim prospects.
Climate change, no doubt, calls for a collective response from the international community. Experts have called for a drastic reduction in carbon dioxide emissions from the burning of fossil fuel. But there has been less of action and more of lip-service so far. The united States is responsible for approximately one-fourth of world's carbon dioxide emission.In the twentieth century, global warming double from 0.4 degrees to 0.8. But the temperature would rise sharply, unless checked, in the coming years. By 2100, the sea level is expected to rise by 60 centimeters. In the worst-case scenario, however, the sea could rise by 3.5 meters due to the melting of ice caps in Artic and Antarctic, Global warming is causing droughts in many parts of the earth. A change in rainfall patterns has become a matter of worry across the world. Global warming is also adversely affecting agriculture
