Major Environmental Issues

can do to stop it, and the result will be a 10-foot rise in sea level within the next
century or two. We know we're losing glaciers, but what does that mean for marine
life, fisheries, and things downstream that we care about? There's a whole host of
issues besides the water issue. The thing people have to think about is what this
means for Earth.
