The melting of glaciers

Due to global warming, the massive glaciers at the poles are beginning to melt. If this continues, sea levels could rise by up to 3 meters (approximately 9.8 feet), leading to the submersion of low-lying areas. Many people will become climate refugees and be forced to move, while inland populations will become overcrowded. The melting of glaciers also has a serious impact on surrounding ecosystems. Habitat and population numbers will decrease, and there is a high risk of widespread famine and species extinction.
