The problem to rise, resulting in flooding and threatening since that period, although it is arises when human activities increase coastal shorelines. estimated that by the end of this the emission of greenhouse gases into century the thermometer could rise the atmosphere and the atmosphere Climate change also increases the even more, even if the emission retains more heat than necessary, reduction commitments set by the causing the average temperature of the occurrence of more violent weather countries are fulfilled. planet to rise and producing what is phenomena, droughts, fires, the death of popularly known as global warming. animal and plant species, the overflowing of rivers and lakes, the emergence of climate refugees and the destruction of livelihoods and economic resources, especially in developing countries.
