We've heard what it does to your environment and the changing atmospheric pressures but does it affect you ...
Well hear this - Chronic hunger may be "the defining human tragedy of this century," as climate change causes growing seasons to shift, crops to fail,
and storms and droughts to ravage fields, an advocacy group said.
It says that as the weather changes, millions of people in areas suffering food scarcity will have to give up traditional crops, possibly leading to social upheavals such as mass migrations and possible conflict over water resources.
Rich countries in temperate climate zones, such as northern Europe and parts of the United States, will benefit from warmer weather and more rainfall, but far more people in hotter, poorer countries will face more erratic and expensive food supplies, said the British-based nonprofit group.
With malaria cases in Kolkata rising alarming, a West Bengal minister named global warming as one of the major reasons.
Health Minister Surya Kanto Mishra, who is a doctor himself, said global warming was one of the reasons for the rising cases of malaria in the city.
Even in cooler climes like Kalimpong in Darjeeling district, the disease has struck with a vengeance all because the snowfall has stopped there due to the warming of the climate, he said.
