What will happen if the polar ice sheets melt completely?

What kind of disasters will countries around the world suffer from the melting of glaciers in the North and South Poles? The research report of biological science shows that if all the glaciers in the North and South poles melt, the global sea level will rise by 66 meters. What concept? It is equivalent to the height of 22 stories. By then, all the countries with lower sea level in the world will become an underwater world except for a few smaller island countries mentioned earlier. Among them, the coastal areas of all continents bear the brunt.

First of all, the Liaodong Peninsula in Asia and most parts of North China and East China will become Wang Yang, the low-lying Siberian plain will be submerged by seawater, Russia will form the largest bay in the world, Bangladesh next to India will be completely famous from the earth in this disaster, London and Venice in Europe will completely sink to the bottom of the sea and become an underwater world, inland lakes will appear in Australia, and Florida in the United States will be completely submerged in the ocean. San Francisco, once brightly lit and drunk, will become an island in the ocean. Boston and New York will also face the Statue of Liberty, whose ending symbolizes American freedom and democracy. At that time, only one head could be seen, and the lighthouse held high in his hand seemed to be calling for help.

Most of the Amazon rainforest will become a playground for marine life, and the situation in South America is even worse than that in North America. As the sea level rises, there will be a serious flood disaster, and at least two inland seas will be formed due to this flood disaster. But compared with this, Europe's experience may be the worst. Because the terrain there is already lower than the sea level, after the sea level rises by 66 meters, the Netherlands will become the first submerged country in Europe and become an underwater kingdom completely. Some cities in northern Germany will also be submerged by the swift sea, and Paris, France will also sink to the bottom of the sea with the romance in everyone's heart.

Compared with these countries and regions, Africa may be the least hurt in this disaster, but Egypt is not so lucky. Cairo, the capital of Egypt, will be completely submerged by seawater. Although the pyramids will not completely sink to the bottom of the sea, humans will think about it. If you appreciate the pyramids, you can only go by boat. So what will we become in this disaster? First of all, most parts of the east will be submerged by seawater, including our magic capital Shanghai, and no one will be spared. Nanjing, Changsha and Wuhan, because of their low terrain, will completely become underwater cities.

According to estimates, according to the current distribution of China's population of 654.38+04 billion, at least 700 million people will lose their homes and be displaced. Moreover, it is not only human beings who are affected by this disaster. Animals living in the Arctic and Antarctic, such as polar bears and penguins, are the first to be affected. If all the glaciers in the North and South poles melt, they will lose their homes.

At that time, in order to compete for a few living spaces, there will be some struggles between different animals, and it is not impossible for some weak animals to become extinct in such struggles. In this case, it will also happen in Chinese mainland. If most of the earth is swallowed up by the ocean, animals will need to migrate besides humans, which will inevitably lead to the extinction of some creatures, and the chain reaction brought about by this situation is unimaginable. The most important thing is that the disaster brought by melting glaciers is far more than these.
