If global warming really is a reality, then there is a very wide range of consequences. It would effect the the species that can survive, change habitats, loss of land/environments (such as the coastal wetlands, which provide a "pillow" for hurricanes raging inland, and are currently washing into the ocean), a change in the earth's wind and water currents, a totally different system of seasonal weather, a loss of the coral reefs (which have very specific temperature requirements to survive) and thus the loss of many different species of animals that lived in such areas, and a plethora of other things.
Global warming threatens to completely change our world in ways that we can't possibly predict, which is why many so passionately fear it.

What are the consequences if global warming isn't happening and we do change? It is very important to look at BOTH sides of this question!

Its a threat 2 human survival coz due 2 excessive heating all the polar regions will melt. This will raise the water level which will lead 2 the submerging of the lowland areas.

Continued climate problems, oceans will rise as glaciers melt
There isn't any debate if there is Global Warming...the only debate is if its manmade or part of a natural cycle.

I guess life would be like it was 1000 years ago when temperatures were at the highest in history. We would have more land in some places, less in others. Crops would have to be grown in different areas (like grapes to minnesota instead of California). Heating bills would go down.

Coastal flooding and severe damage to agriculture are the main effects. There are others.
Here's a newspaper article and a large peer reviewed scientific study, giving details.

Somethin' tells me that we will live underwater. Like those inhabitants of Atlantis... We will eat seaweed and fishes everyday. No more burgers, fries and my favourite ICE CREAM SUNDAE!!!
