What are the Impacts?

The impacts of climate change are likely to be felt by everybody worldwide. For some people it could just be a slight change in the weather, for others there could be more devasting impacts such as floods, droughts, lack of food and loss of homes.

The average global temperature has increased by almost 1ºF over the past century. Scientists expect the average global temperature to increase by an additional 3 to 7ºF over the next one hundred years. This may not sound like much, but it could change the Earth's climate as never before.

Looking at the evidence of climate change scientists have identified some of the likely impacts of climate change:

- Weather
- Sea Levels
- Animals
- Other Impacts
