Have you lot said goodbye to the rainforest yet? Based on the electrical flow levels of deforestation the Amazonian rainforest volition endure gone inwards almost 250 years time. By the twelvemonth 2260 most of the rainforest volition in all likelihood endure lost forever. This horrifying forecast comes from a novel mapping tool called Co$ting Nature as well as is based on the electrical flow charge per unit of measurement of deforestation inwards the Amazon.
Infoamazonia used the Co$ting Nature information & surround service to projection the effects of the electrical flow rates of deforestation inwards the Amazon on the size of the rainforest. The results of the projections tin reach the sack endure viewed on Infoamazonia's interactive Forest Cover Through Time map. The map shows Co$ting Nature's projections for the extent of the forest's comprehend upwards until it is almost completely destroyed. Just select the engagement buttons inwards a higher house the map to stance the projected wood comprehend for a specific year.
Infoamazonia's Forest Cover Through Time map is merely the latest visualization of the uncertain hereafter humans confront if nosotros don't acquire to curtail our electrical flow levels of consumption. For example, Climate Central of late released an interactive map which reveals how hot your urban meat volition endure inwards the twelvemonth 2100, if carbon emissions expire along equally currently predicted.
Climate Central's Shifting Cities allows you lot to direct from a large reveal of major cities roughly the basis to stance the results of global warming inwards 2100. Climate Impact Lab's Climate Impact Map also visualizes how global warming volition outcome temperatures roughly the basis over the balance of this century.
The University of Hawaii has released a like interactive map which uses expected temperature increases to predict the reveal of deadly days nosotros tin reach the sack await from extreme oestrus roughly the basis for each twelvemonth upwards to 2100. Heatwaves: Number of deadly oestrus days provides a timeline command which allows you lot to stance the reveal of deadly days for whatever twelvemonth from 1950-2100.
Thanks to NOAA's Sea Level Rise Viewer nosotros tin reach the sack also uncovering how these increases inwards temperature volition outcome body of body of water levels. By the cease of this century the National Climate Assessment estimates that body of body of water levels may ascent past times upwards to 6.6 feet. NOAA's interactive map uses the most accurate elevation information available to model how dissimilar extents of body of body of water marking ascent volition touching on coastal areas inwards the USA upwards to the twelvemonth 2100.
