global warming and ice melting and sea level rising

Global warming and sea level rising

कितना टारगेट हम निर्धारित किए हैं क्या इससे फायदा होगा Even if humanity beats the odds and caps global warming at 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, 

🔘seas will rise for centuries to come and

🔘 swamp /fill with water  cities currently home to half-a-billion people, researchers warned Tuesday.

कितना डिग्री बढ़ने से कितने लोग प्रभावित होंगे कैसा असर रहेगा

In a world that heats up another half-degree above that benchmark, an additional 200 million of today’s urban dwellers would regularly find 

🔘themselves knee-deep in sea water and 

🔘more vulnerable to devastating/ विनाशकारी  storm surges, they reported in Environmental Research Letters.

सबसे ज्यादा प्रभावित महाद्वीप कौन सा रहेगा

Worst hit in any scenario will be Asia, which accounts for nine of the 10 mega-cities at highest risk.

एशिया में कौन से देश प्रभावित होंगे long term high tide के द्वारा 

Land home to more than half the populations of Bangladesh and Vietnam fall below the long-term high tide line, in a world with even a 2 degrees Celsius rise.

 Built-up areas in China, India and Indonesia would also face devastation.

Most projections for sea level rise run to the end of the century. 

But oceans will continue to swell for hundreds of years beyond 2100 — fed by melting ice sheets, heat trapped in the ocean and the dynamics of warming water — no matter how aggressively greenhouse gas emissions are drawn down.
