As a result, that, too, speeds up Global Warming in the oceans, as well. With a rise in water temperatures comes a rise in sea levels. The results are especially dangerous for lowlying coastal regions, where much of the worlds population lives. Fastgrowing megacities are at risk. The regions subsistence farmers are struggling to survive. More than a third of the earths land surface is desert and many deserts continue to grow. Ever more forests are being cleared. Every three seconds, 100 trees lost. That is the rate at which deforestation has been going on in the amazon for the past 40 years. Yes, thats right 100 trees felled or burned every three seconds. Like here, in the brazilian state of rondonia. Rain forest is cleared to make way for soy fields, cattle farms, dams, and reservoirs. The destruction of rainforests means even more co2 is released into the atmosphere and the earth gets ever warmer. Host Human Factors in Climate Change were the focus of the first u. N.
