Impacts of Climate in the UK
In unit 1 book with all info in note and pictures.
Environmental impacts
Rising sea levels causing major erosion
More land is useable at higher altitude
Increase in flooding
Summers will be colder
Higher rainfall
Economic impacts
more droughts and water shortages
More illness
hot temps melt roads and rail lines buckle
Farmers changing crops which don't need as much water
people taking holidays in England which would be good for tourisum
Egypt
99% of the people live in 5% of the country
In flood, 7 million people would have to move
less forming
Flat and just under the sea levels
If the sea level rises 50cm, over a third of Alexandria will be under water
LEDC's doesn't have plans to protect its self
Inertial land away from the river, no good for farming
On the edge
Sea levels rising
if sea levels rise by 50cm the land will be flooded
1/3 of Alexandria will be under water
The same sea level rise and the nile delta will be 10% flooded
7 million people will ha to find new accommodation
therefore people could die because of lack of food and water, they would have no homes
Conflict over water
Countries south of Egypt are taking more and more money from the Nile
Uganda, for example, has built the $862 million bujagali dam
This has meant that the amount of water avalible per person in Egypt is 950cm^3
Therefore, the 6 million acres of irrupted farmland could die
Cant protect it self from GW
Its an LEDC
Cant make plans for when it floods
This can lead to lots of people being killed
Water shortage because of dam being made
Leads to possible future wars
