As temperature +48°C change city on Earth?
Source:
Every year, summer on the planet puts a new . So, 2019 July was the hottest month in the history of observations. Moreover, over the past 100 years the temperature rise was observed across the globe. In the future, climate change will inevitably lead to extreme consequences. Especially very hot weather will affect the cities. Indeed, in the cities, and so often observed .
How to change the city in 30 years?
Scientists predict that by 2050 average temperatures in many cities around the world will rise to 48 degrees Celsius (120 Fahrenheit). Obviously, the heat will not affect what the experts mentioned more than once. But let's look at how cities and life in them will be affected by the unusually high temperatures.
If you do not change the composition of the mixtures, the asphalt will bake in the sun, with the result that streets, roads and sidewalks begin to simply melt away. The resulting black, sticky asphalt pools can cause machine stops and the pedestrians get some serious burns. The result of such transformation road will be a temporary ban on any movement .
Watch this:
around airports in many American and European cities due to high temperatures will lose its usual density. In these conditions, aircraft will not be able to develop greater speed required for . Thus, all flights between these continents will be stopped.
Trouble is inevitable and the railway line. Ground metal rails start to bend. Because flexion and extension of routes of all trains on the suburban tracks of the European countries will stop the movement. And new Yorkers will have to forget even about — the fact that the subway of this metropolis produces heat all year round. Even today, on a hot day there is difficult to wait for the train. Needless to say, that at a temperature of 48 degrees Celsius there will be an Inferno.
If you thought that traffic jams are more than enough, I hasten to disappoint you. Mass interruptions in the supply of electricity will become widespread. The record-high intake will lead to the fact that millions of people will be stranded without light. Moreover, the inevitable increase in the number of fatalities as the heat has a negative impact on the health of older people and people suffering from cardiovascular diseases. Do not bypass the interruptions and communication systems. Even will be disabled.
Results of global warming
As you can see, increasing the temperature to 48S will turn an ordinary urban life in Metropolitan areas in the life that we saw only on television or in the pages of fiction. In addition to the above-described problems with the electricity, transport and urban infrastructure, we are waiting for , the depletion of fresh water, and problems with the cultivation of many crops such as maize, rice and wheat.
If world leaders do not listen to the warnings of scientists and take measures to reduce CO2 emissions into the atmosphere, it is the future that awaits all of us.
