Life on Earth
So what does this mean for life on earth? What are the actual health results of these signs of global warming? Storms and floods have increased, with a resultant spread of sewage and hence disease. In addition, allergens like ragweed thrive in high CO2 environments, negatively affecting allergy sufferers. Further, increased temperatures have resulted in more forest fires, which spew noxious gas and chemicals into the air; this has resulted in poor air quality, negatively affecting lung function.
