The effects of climate change in both Developed and Developing countries

The consequences of climate change Melting of the ice sheets/glaciers A rise in sea level with subsequent migration as islands and coastal areas are submerged. Loss of plant and animal habitats in these areas eg impact on polar bears which could lead to a loss of tourism/more problems in settlements as the bears scavenge instead of hunting on the ice. BBC Nature - Polar bear videos, news and factsBBC Nature - Polar bear videos, news and facts Polar bears fight for survival as sea ice melts – video | Environment | The Guardian New transportation routes across the Arctic Ocean ie the North West Passage with resulting benefits to trade/previously ice bound coastal settlements. Extension of mineral exploitation into the Arctic with positive and negative consequences. Oil in Greenland

Changing rainfall/temperature patterns Higher or lower rainfall/temperature and maybe more extreme weather depending on where you are with resulting increasing/decreasing crop yields, more floods/drought/hurricanes/tornadoes etc. Extension or retreat of vegetation (and associated wildlife) by altitude as well as latitude – growing vines/sunflowers in Scotland, spread of malaria, the loss of the Cairngorm Arctic habitat etc. RSPB concernsRSPB concerns Change in ocean currents (EI Nino/La Nina). Change to the Atlantic Conveyor – disruption of the thermohaline circulation. BBC Weather - Wild weather around the world
