Impacts of Climate change

Warmer, wetter weather

Melting glaciers, ice sheets and sea ice

Rising water levels due to melting ground ice & thermal expansion Thermal expansion = water expands slightly when it warms up.

Increase in severe weather such as heat waves & hurricanes

Changes in precipitation: some areas will experience more & some areas will experience droughts.

Changing seasons – lengths change – ie: longer summers.

Changes in geographic patterns & disruption of ecosystems So...as planet warms up, some animals will migrate to poles where it is cooler
