Math is found in many issues, even ones that don't seem to be related to it at all. Global warming is a world wide problem that is a huge threat to every living organism on Earth. As it continues, people will continue to suffer its negative consequences and severe changes that global warming brings. With this happening, the sea level is rising at a terrifyingly rapid pace. The rise is predicted to be up to three feet, which is enough to flood the three major airports in New York City, and the entire subway system. Clean water supply will be limited, due to salt water combining with freshwater. This will influence other people to leave the places with the rising sea level, and will settle into calmer locations. When more people move to these places, they can soon become overpopulated, and increase by thirty percent, which will make a big difference in the society. Also, global warming affects wildlife habitat. The warmth is causing the necessities of animals during the springtime to be gone by the time that they arrive to the places to get them from because winter would end too early. Animals will not have a place to raise their young, reproduce, or adapt to. According to Global Issues in Context, by 2050, fifteen to thirty-seven percent of wildlife species are to be extinct because of global warming. Out of the most fierce hurricanes, three occurred in 2005. Global warming had killed over 150,000 people that year, and things are getting worse. If humans don't stop polluting and avoiding the chances to attempt the prevention of this issue, the estimated cost for the solution is to be 1.9 trillion dollars. Since things are getting way too unpredictable, such as natural disasters coming our way, climate change, or mass extinction, global warming definitely needs to stop. Without a doubt, negative, or positive, all situations can relate to math in some ways.
