Most of the world’s great seaport cities would be【1】: New Orleans, Amsterdam, Shanghai, and Cairo. Some countries — Maldives Islands in the Indian Ocean, islands in the Pacific — would be inundated. Heavily populated coastal areas such as in Bangladesh and Egypt,【2】large populations occupy low-lying areas, would suffer extreme【3】.

The list of possible consequences of global warming suggests very clearly that we must do everything we can now to understand its causes and effects and to take all measures possible to prevent and adapt to potential and inevitable disruptions【20】by global warming. [br] 【8】
