How is global warming going to kill me?

Question

I know that global warming is fact, but I have been told by some that it will cause me to die? How? If it gets a bit hotter, big deal, sea rises doesn't matter as I live inland, more rain, got good drainage and doesn't flood. The supermarkets will still sell food.

Answer 1

By worrying you to death.

Answer 2

Oh no! Your perception towards GW are definitely wrong! If it gets hotter, we will suffer from heat stroke and more people will succumb to skin cancer due to the ultraviolet ray that somehow burns our epithelial tissues of our skin. Rising of sea level will lead to major flood that damages properties and living places, despite the fact that you live inland! More rain will cause flood too! Good drainage will not guarantee no flood. And don't get suprised if you see the supermarkets are empty. They won't be selling any food when flood damages the food source, such as paddy and other agricultural products! That's when you'll see how GW going to kill not only you, but others as well.

Answer 3

the glaciers melt and that can cause an eruption. It's like what some of the crack heads say " The world is gonna end"! but they know what they are talking about, you see them as crazy but they really know what's going on. Also like in the bible when it saya that there is gonna be a judgement day, when god picks his people, that could be the day when global warming kills us and a llu see is god pickin his people.Think about it we can all be dead in 10 years, we have to make smarter choices if we want to stay ALIVE!

Answer 4

You sound a lot more adaptable than most people. Many people have lost the ability to face the fact that nature is bigger than us and is ever-changing. Humans migrated away from glaciers and back to new lands as climate changed in the past, but current human practices (building cities, etc.) make migration difficult.

While engineering solutions can often be found, it's expensive to fight Mother Nature. That's why it's imperative that as the earth's climate changes, we don't give up our prosperity on foolish efforts of being PC--we will need our resources to adapt.

Answer 5

It's not going to kill anyone. At least for a hundred years or longer. OK it's a fact but one that has been with us for sometime and we will not be here when the real bad stuff happens.Ignore Chicken Little. Yes, we should all want cleaner air,who doesn't.
There is nothing we can do about it anyway. If we stopped all greenhouse gases today, nothing would happen. Not for years. We have set nature in motion and she will do what she does. Lets clean the air and ignore the fanatics. Peace :)

Answer 6

If you are so slow that you can't get out of the way of a one foot rise in sea level in a hundred years, I guess you might die from getting run over by a car.

Answer 7

global warming will in some way probably kill everyone. it could cause hurricanes, flooding, tornados, pretty much anything that's natural and has to do with the weather.
also, the carbon dioxide can get into your lungs, but that's only the gas that helps create global warming.

Answer 8

let me tell you something about global warming its gonna kill you if this whole world flods because some idiot wants to throw a twinki wraper out their car window.

Answer 9

If you live in a rich country it won't kill you. But paying for damage to agriculture and coastal flooding will cost your country huge sums of money. So you'll be poorer.

In poor countries some people will starve to death because of damage to agriculture.
