IMPACTS OF WASTE IF NOT MANAGED
WISELY
Affects our health.
Affects our socio-economic conditions.
Affects our coastal and marine environment.
Affects our climate.
GHGs are accumulating in earth’s atmosphere
as a result of human activities, causing global
mean surface air temperature and subsurface
ocean temperature.
Rising global temperature are expected to raise
sea level and change precipitation and other
local climate condition.
Changing regional climates could alter forests,
crop yields, and water supplies.
This could also affect human, animals, and
many type of ecosystem.
Desert might expand into existing rangelands,
and features of some of our national parks
might be permanently altered.
