SEA LEVEL RISE: Ominous Effect Of Global Warming And Climate Change

Floods over any other natural disaster attribute to the highest number of deaths and devastation in the United States of America. Floods are a huge matter of concern in most parts of the world primarily because delta regions contain large and important community residences.

The reason for sea level rise is related to 3 primary factors and all 3 reasons are triggered by the current climate change on a global level:

I: Thermal Intensification

The water levels expand as soon as they heat up. Heating oceans are one of the major reasons for the sea level rise for the last 25 years.

II: Melting Glaciers

Huge ice formation including mountain caps naturally melts by a small amount every summer. The evaporation of seawater during winter leads to the formation of snow, thus balancing the water cycle. Nonetheless, global warming has prompted continuous high temperatures in recent years. This resulted in higher and much fast-paced summer melting than normal.

Additionally, the formation of snow has also considerably decreased due to late winter and early springtime. This has created an imbalance and caused sea level rise.

III. Disappearing Antarctica and Greenland Ice Sheets Greenland

Increased heating of oceans has caused enormous ice sheets of Antarctica and Greenland to melt at an exponentially quick speed. Researchers believe that seawater and meltwater are gradually seeping under the ice sheets of Greenland. This is further lubricating the ice streams and driving the sea levels higher.

End Animal Testing (What is inside is more important than what's outside)

What’s inside is more important than what’s outside. 💗 Each year, over 133,000 rabbits are used in experiments in the US, and 10,000 in Britain. Rabbits are used for toxicology tests, for damage to skin, eyes and for effects on reproduction. A number of routes for dosing, including gavage (inserting a tube down the throat to pump products directly into the stomach), injections and rectal dosing. They also describe rabbits as “particularly useful” for skin and eye tests. Across the world, rabbits are still used in the 70-year old Draize Eye Irritancy test, due to their large eyes, low cost and availability. Despite that the Draize test has been shown to be unreliable and advanced scientific replacements tests are available, it remains listed as a model for eye irritation. Investigations have exposed terrible suffering endured by rabbits in cosmetic testing, restrained in stocks while products were dripped into their eyes. Wherever you live, please ask your legislators ...

THE LIGHTS ARE ABOUT TO GO OUT ON FIREFLIES. 😔

And yes, humans are to blame this time. According to the first major review of their global status, Fireflies Face Triple Extinction Threat Worldwide due to habitat loss and exposure to pesticides. Will fireflies now become just a memory from our childhood? What we can do is Increase habitat, Turn off lights, stop pesticide use... save fireflies and their relatives and share this to Aware world.

SAVE WATER, SAVE LIFE.

After ruining the entire nature, we somehow manage to find sources for ourselves. But what about the other species who are also trying to survive around us? Let's be kind, let's be responsible. Please think of everyone else around as well before ruining and wasting anything around you.. Art Credit: Awantha Artigala #savewater #savewildlife #climatechange #ClimateAction #geographytimes
