Classmate Facts # 112 - Global Warming

1. Global Warming means living underwater (don’t forget to carry your oxygen masks)! If Greenland’s entire ice were to melt, global sea levels would rise by 7.2 metres.

2. Between 34 and 80 fish species have become extinct since the late 19th century, 6 since 1970. The reason: global warming!

3. Some indoor plants can remove 87% of the indoor toxic air in just 24 hours!

4. Warmer temperatures mean malaria carrying mosquitoes are now able to live in climates beyond the tropics, in areas they were not found earlier.

5. India is the 4th Largest producer of Windpower in the world.
