Six Degrees Could Change The World: Climate Change

I consider climate change an important issue because climate change directly affects how we live our everyday lives and how we will have to adapt to live throughout life. As examples were shown in the movie, Australia could potentially become a continent covered in a giant desert with almost, if any, sources of clean drinking water. Another thing that was mentioned in the video that would happen would be hurricanes because of the massive climate changes. It talked about how the western half of the United states would be devastated with the droughts and dry climate but then along the east coast hurricanes would come down from up North. This would surely destroy most if not all cities and civilizations along the coast which would result in a drop of many places for people to live since the desert-ish area to the east would be inhabitable. So if both of those disasters were to come from the temperature going up a couple degrees then that would mean most major crop producing industries would be shut down due to the heat killing the plants and then without the vegetables and grains to feed the animals then that would mean most of the animals would die. An increase in the temperature would put a lot of the world's humans in danger even though it could possibly lead to a new/more sustainable life for people in extremely cold climates. Climate change would not be good.
