https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r The affect of sea level rise on coastal areas, such as Bangladesh and Florida. en-us 2017-11-11 22:46:39 UTC 2023-03-07 04:29:01 UTC hello@padlet.com sarahstuart70 https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/205928651 An estimated 90 coastal communities are already fighting long-term damage, making thousands without homes. Imagine this is Bangladesh, a coastal country that is being hit hard with sea level rising. This country, already in poverty, is facing a real struggle. ]]> 2017-11-11 22:52:16 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/205928651 sarahstuart70 https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/205929279 The affects of sea level rising can be devastating. First off, it's forcing people out of their homes. Population is probably one of the most important factors in this. People will be split apart from their families and the estimated 163 million people that live there will become inhabitants of other countries causing over population. ]]> 2017-11-11 23:05:41 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/205929279 sarahstuart70 https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/206038360 Sea level rising can also cause wildlife populations to change. Sea level rising would cause certain shelters to these animals to be swept away. This completely messes with the ecosystem. This in the long run affects other things such food sources. Many people are relying on these sources, and they aren't there anymore.]]> 2017-11-12 21:27:08 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/206038360 sarahstuart70 https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/206060653 However, in more developed cities like the Florida Keys or Miami, the affects are completely different. Since its inhabitants can go to many other surrounding states, population won't be as large as the issue in Bangladesh. Food sources also aren't as big of a deal. In Florida they have many other things the can eat like preserved things. But then contaminated drinking water becomes and issue.]]> 2017-11-13 00:36:24 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/206060653 sarahstuart70 https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/206062212 The ways these places are affected is different. In Bangladesh, they have bigger problems due to multiple factors. In Florida, it is much easier to get around the problem, I mean yes, these things are happening but they have other people giving them extra assistance.]]> 2017-11-13 00:48:22 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/206062212 sarahstuart70 https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/206062534 But, in these places they are affected my the same thing. Its what is happening that is causing all this. Yes, Florida has many more resources to help them, but its still sea level rising that is hurting them. ]]> 2017-11-13 00:51:06 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/206062534 sarahstuart70 https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/206062954 So, what can be done to help? Well we can stop using pollutants in the first places. These pollutants are what cause global warming, making the water expand and then makes the sea level rise cause it go flow over. We can also volunteer and do anything else like sending out kits like we do for soldiers because this is something that our world goes through together.]]> 2017-11-13 00:54:15 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahstuart70/9721wct4o8r/wish/206062954
