A new scientific study warned that the world is close to a “catastrophic” moment that may change the shape of life on Earth, with the increasing indicators of the imminent collapse of the ice cover in the west of the Antarctic continent, which may lead to an unaccompative height in the sea level by more than three meters, threatening to flood major cities around the world.
The ice cover in the west of Antarctica is one of the largest ice blocks on the planet with an area of 760 thousand square miles, but it is witnessing an accelerated decline due to the high levels of carbon dioxide and the continued global warming. According to the study conducted by the Australian National University, the collapse of this ice cover will have “destructive repercussions for future generations”, as the full coastal cities will disappear under water Among them, Hull, Calenis, Middlesbrough, and Niobport in Britain, in addition to large parts of the Netherlands, and famous European cities such as Venice, Montelier and Ghadangsk. The global, ”noting that the loss of marine ice makes ice shelves more likely to collapse by waves and increases warming through greater absorption of solar energy. On his part, Professor Matthew England, participating in the preparation of the study, warned that the melting of marine ice doubles the risk of the extinction of imperial penguins that depend on its youngsters on stable ice platforms before the growth of their water -resistant feathers, Pointing out that some colonies witnessed during the last decade frequent deeds in reproduction, and a simulation prepared by Climate Center showed that this rise in the level of the seas may lead to the immersion of the eastern coast of England, including internal areas such as Peterro and Lincolen, as well as large parts of London along the Times. On the West Coast, water will be immersed in cities like Weston Super Marie, Nioport, Cardiff, Soutbort and Blackpool, while the coast that extends from Calais to southern Denmark in Europe may disappear, and many cities in the southern American states are at risk. It is possible of 1.5 degrees Celsius, calling on governments, companies and communities to integrate these risks into their future plans to adapt to the effects of climate change. (Russia today)
