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】
Warmer oceans would spawn stronger hurricanes and typhoons, 【4】in coastal flooding, possibly swamping valuable agricultural lands around the world.【5】water quality may result in 【6】flooding which forces salt water into coastal irrigation and drinking water supplies, and irreplaceable, natural【7】could be flooded with ocean water, destroying forever many ol the【8】plant and animal species living there.

Human health would also be affected. Warming could【12】tropical climate bringing with it yellow fever, malaria, and other diseases. Heat stress and heat mortality could rise.
