Essay / Research Paper Abstract
5 pages in length. As the world continues to succumb to the effects of global warming, some areas of the planet have been discovered to be significantly more susceptible to the detrimental affects than others. For the most part, underdeveloped nations stand to suffer a much worse outcome than their developed counterparts, inasmuch as the change in climate will directly influence the manner in which their environment reacts. The writer discusses how such countries as India, Malaysia, Vietnam, Pakistan, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and the Philippines appear to be on a collision course with time, as their entire economic and environmental stability will likely crumble as global warming inevitably wreaks its final havoc. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

the manner in which their environment reacts. Such countries as India, Malaysia, Vietnam, Pakistan, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and the Philippines appear to be on a collision course with
time, as their entire economic and environmental stability will likely crumble as global warming eventually wreaks its final havoc. "Global warming is fact, not fiction. There are dreadful floods
in Bangladesh, and the worlds climate is changing" (Anonymous, 1998, p. 13A). According to the Climate Institute in Washington, DC, what occurs in these underdeveloped countries will "adversely affect" (Kleiner,
1994, p. 6) how its people are able to cope, even to the point of staying alive. As global warming continues, it influences the sea level; as the waters
continue to rise, they will ultimately "displace the population in the coastal areas, decrease agricultural production and destroy fisheries" (Kleiner, 1994, p. 6), which, by the year 2010, will serve
to significantly cripple the economies of these countries. Flooding has been no stranger to the people of Bangladesh, where millions of inhabitants have already been left homeless and the land
rendered useless by raging waters of 1998. Even more particular to the plight of Bangladesh, however, is the fact that the land, itself, is sinking; if an answer is
not found with regard to reversing this process, "the future is extremely grim" (Maslin, 1998, p. A7) for the country as global warming only continues to get worse. "Theres
little argument global warming raises sea level. It does so by thermally expanding water in the ocean and melting ice on land...Storm flooding may turn out to be an
