    Global warming to make a billion homeless by 2050 Scientists predict that average temperatures will rise by between 1.8 and 3.0 degrees Celsius this century because of greenhouse gas burning fuels, causing floods and famines and putting million of lives at risk. The Intergovernmental Panel on climate change says that by 2080 up to 3.2 billion people – one third of the planet’s population – will be short of water, up to 600 million will be short of food and up to 7 million will face coastal flooding.

    It is estimated that, unless strong preventative action is taken, between now and 2050 climate will push the number of displaced people globally to at least one billion.

    the coastal places, the places too near to see and low lying areas are going to suffer pretty badly!
    but then it is already summer in ranchi, it's too hot actually, and thinking about global warming is not the right thing to do at the moment!:rolleyes:
