After the rapid increase in greenhouse effect gases, the temperature on the earth also began to rise. The first problem was the rise of sea levels. Icebergs that were originally in the polar regions began to melt. At the same time, seawater also began to expand due to heat. The two factors interacted. Below, the sea level begins to rise, and some islands, estuarine plains and coastal plains that were originally close to sea level will be submerged by sea water. And local human activities will also be impossible.
The global warming crisis continues to worsen, and Tuvalu, our diplomatic neighbor, has been submerged in sea water. How much harm will it cause to Taiwan in the future? The Institute of Geosciences of National Central University estimates that once the sea level rises to 10 meters, 8.8% of Taiwan's area will sink into the sea, which is equivalent to the size of Taipei City, including the entire Taipei Basin, Lanyang Plain, and Chianan Plain, which will bear the brunt. , but when all this will happen, experts are not sure.
Is it possible that the glacier collapse in the movie "After Tomorrow" could happen in real life? As the anomalies about global warming effects gradually develop and global warming continues, what will Taiwan look like in a few decades? Using computer numerical simulations and estimates, Central University and the Space Telemetry Center discovered the most undesirable fact: the greenhouse effect is indeed occurring.
Estimating based on the current rate of warming, experts have seen that once the sea level rises 10 meters, an area of 7 Taipei City-sized areas in Taiwan will sink into the water. In 2100, Taiwan will include areas in the Taipei Basin. Taipei Main Station, the Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall, and even the four floors of 101 were completely submerged.
Warming causes glaciers to melt rapidly, but droughts follow. How fast will the warming happen? Experts dare not imagine it, but what is certain is that if the pace of global industrial development does not slow down, everyone will have to bear the consequences of natural environment protests.
