Many big cities will sink under the sea
Five major Australian cities disappeared and the 'Kangaroo Land' was mixed in a sea of water the size of Ireland.
Five major Australian cities disappeared and the 'Kangaroo Land' was mixed in a sea of water the size of Ireland. There will no longer be an island nation surrounded by the sea, instead it is a country infiltrated by the sea. That is what is described in one of the series of maps of the consequences of the climate change that the National Geographic Institute of Australia has just announced.
>>>The Arctic temperature is the highest in 44,000 years
Interactive maps show the terrible impact of ice sheets on Earth as they melt into the oceans and seas.
According to these maps, rising sea levels will swallow five of Australia's major cities, including Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Darwin and Perth.
When sea level rises to nearly 70m, large cities and even many countries are wiped out, the structure of the continents is seriously altered.
In the US, New York City will be engulfed by many seriously polluted East Coast.
In Europe, London and Venice will become the past, while sea level rise will significantly increase the area of the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea.
Bangladesh and 160 million people will no longer be on the world map and 600 million Chinese people will be forced to find new places.
Forecasting these changes will happen in the next few thousand years if people do not have timely measures to prevent climate change. Many scientists predict that all ice on Earth will melt for more than 5,000 years.
