International: Due to global warming, the temperature of the earth's surface is continuously increasing. Due to this, the heat on the earth is increasing, due to which the glaciers are melting and the water level of the oceans is increasing drastically.
Meanwhile, a report released on Tuesday by the United Nations World Meteorological Organization states that the water level of the Pacific Ocean is rising more than the global average. This poses a threat of submergence of large areas of low-lying island countries.
Rising water levels due to continued burning of fossil fuels
Globally, sea levels are rising rapidly. Warming Earth temperatures from the continued burning of fossil fuels are causing powerful and thick ice sheets to melt. Warming oceans are causing water molecules to expand.
The average annual growth is much higher in the north and east
The World Meteorological Organization report showed that the average annual rise is much higher in the two measurement areas of the Pacific Ocean, north and east of Australia. The global rise was 3.4 millimeters per year over the past three decades.
