海平面上升
 
  • 美国科学促进会(American Association for the Advancement of Science)会长约翰_霍尔德伦博士(John Holdren),预言本世纪末海平面可能会上升4米,16 而美国太空总署戈达德太空研究所(Goddard Institute for Space Studies)负责人詹姆士_韩森博士(James Hansen),先前则指出本世纪末海平面可能上升 5米。17 (分别于2006年、2007年发表)
  • 海平面仅仅上升1米,就会导致超过 1亿的气候难民,并危及如伦敦、开罗、曼谷、威尼斯、纽约和上海等大城市。18
  • 列举遭受海平面上升影响的国家:

    • 悠乐(越南):该国的湄公河叁角洲米仓区,其上游流域在2010年遭到咸海水倒灌的区域高达前所未有的60公里,威胁了10万公顷的稻米生长。19
    • 泰国:海水在25年内就会到达曼谷的陆地平面。20(泰国大地测量地球观测技术:环境变迁观测和调查,2010年)
    • 埃及:自1989年以来,罗塞塔(Rasheed )每年有超过 58米的海岸线消失。21(海岸研究所〔Coastal Research Institute〕欧姆南_富莱喜〔Omran Frihy〕,2010年)

  • 海平面上升造成至少18个岛国已完全消失,而更多的沿海地区仍继续受到威胁。22 另外还有四十多个其他岛国也因为海平面上升而岌岌可危。23
  • 海平面上升威胁着一半以上居住在离海岸线200公里内的世界人口。目前,沿海低洼地区和叁角洲已经看到的影响:孟加拉有1,700万人逃离家园,主要是因为海岸侵蚀。在以色列和泰国,以及太平洋、印度洋和加勒比海的小岛屿国家,还有世界的一些主要叁角洲,如长江叁角洲和湄公河叁角洲地区,地下水源都已受到咸水的污染。24
