To
know
just
what
the
effects
of
global
warming
will
be
in
the
future
is
extremely
difficult, if not impossible.
Scientists use computer models to study the __1__ of global warming. These computer
models
have
been
fairly
consistent
in
__2__
general
future
trends,
but
often
__3__
greatly
when looking at the specifics.
Some scientists say global warming has already been going on for a while. Others say
that
we
do
not
have
enough
information
now
to
know
for
sure.
Despite
the
__4__,
most
scientists are convinced that greenhouse gases are __5__ the Earth. What they are still trying
to figure out is how __6__ temperatures are rising, and what will happen as a result.
The
climate
changes
that
will
result
from
global
warming
are
extremely
__7__
to
predict.
The
weather
is
determined
by
so
many
factors
that
it
is
often
compared
to
chaos
(complete
disorder)
by
scientists.
Changing
the
__8__
will
likely
have
some
effect
on
the
planet
?/p>
s weather, but just what that effect will be is __9__ impossible to predict.
If temperature do rise significantly, the most important __10__ would be that some part
of the polar ice caps would melt, __11__ global sea levels.
The rise in sea levels would be __12__ for some places. Islands would __13__ , meaning
their millions of inhabitants would have to move to other places. __14__ would occur along
coastlines all over the world, forcing more people to move and ruining cropland.
In the case of major global warming and __15__ ice caps, some countries might simply
stop existing. Global warming, if uncontrolled, could cause a major catastrophe.
