Explanation
Global warming can raise sea levels, putting low-lying coastal areas at risk of flooding. It can also worsen drought and turn fertile land into dust bowls, while increased heat and related pollutants can reduce air quality and threaten health. Cooler places becoming more suitable for agriculture and spending less on heating fuel may be benefits, not negative effects.
