According to the Climate Institute sea levels have risen a lot in the past 20 years, they say it has risen about 3 inches and will rise up to 6.6 feet in just a few years, estimating that by the year 2100 to be exact it will rise that high. Being from New York City, I can see that the Hudson River alone has risen, when I go to the beach, waves come up a lot farther than they used to. I believe that countries with the impacted coastal areas should not be the only ones to deal with this issue. I believe in unity, think, it is easier to get a big job done with two or more people, you get the work done faster and done well if you have help. I believe that countries who especially don’t have this issue should help countries who are dealing with this issue. The countries who are safe from this problem should tell the countries who aren’t what they have done to prevent this issue from occurring. If they have done anything to prevent this, and if they haven’t really done anything to prevent this then they can give advice and come up with ideas to help prevent this. Teamwork is very important in many situations, no matter what the situation is. Many countries are prideful and have social issues with many other countries surrounding them, not realizing that they can help each other in the long run and short run and keep each other safe from things, for example, the destruction of our planet.
