A cause and effect chain
As Mark Lynas analyzed, when the catastrophe of Global warming happened, it followed a cause and effect chain. On the continent, evanishment of mountain glacier finally caused shrink or even exhaustion of main rivers. The break of rivers resulted in desertification of forests and farmlands in their basin perimeter, and lead to rapid expansion of desert. Simultaneously, in the ocean, massive melting of continental glacier caused significant rise of sea level, which lead to wide submersion of all coastal regions. (Mark Lynas, 2008) All of these eventually caused massive mortality in global population, large immigration all over the world, and changes in international land use. Although due to the complexity coming from the combination of climate phenomena, topography and geomorphology, the result of these changes seems to be unpredictable, the physical logic hides behind these phenomena is doomed.
