EARLY SIGNS OF GLOBAL WARMING

Recently I have been reading a lot on global warming as my case study requires me to do so. I am very much attracted to the fact that there have been some early signs showing us that Mother Nature is actually being heated up in terms of global warming. Some of the signs are heat waves, periods of unusual warming, ocean warming, sea level rise, coastal flooding and glaciers melting. The following events such as spreading of disease, earlier spring arrival, plant and animal range shift and population changes, coral reef bleaching, downpours, heavy snowfalls, flooding, drought and fires are the types of impacts that are likely to become more frequent and widespread with continued warming.
