If the headline seems like a scene from a movie, then it appears that fiction is really based on reality.
Last year, NASA scientists announced something that might seem trivial to you at first, but bear serious repercussions: in the next 100 to 200 years, sea level will definitely rise by at least one metre. This is due to the ice sheets melting rapidly in Greenland Antarctica.
The director of NASA’s Earth Science Division, Michael Freilich, announced the news in the grimmest manner: there would be profound impacts, and some islands might be completely devoured by the sea. This includes major cities like Singapore and Tokyo.
Most researchers do not see any silver lining: in fact, most are seriously concern about the melting of the ice sheets.
The primary cause of the sea level rise is due to global warming: this is precisely the reason why authorities are moving to the go-green stance, because our children would suffer should his continue.
So, how can we as individuals contribute? Well, if everyone does their part, we can help to stop this natural disaster. Just do the following:
- Use less electricity
- Change your electrical appliances to those that use less energy
- Drive less or hitch a ride instead
- Switch off your lights when you’re not using them
- Recycle whenever possible
After all, even when we would no longer be around, we would like a SG150, right?
