Rising sea levels, melting glaciers, floods and hurricanes: global warming means urban planners need to rethink how and where to build cities, water experts say. Almost 80 percent of the world's population lives less than 50 kilometres (30 miles) from a coastline, a jarring fact given that one of the effects of global warming is rising sea levels, according to the Stockholm International Water Institute (Minter, 1992). Circumstances change. Heated above the ground, and it has already reached a scientific consensus on what is happening, and human activities. With rising global temperatures to rise, and species and habitats to pay a fine and opportunities for ecosystems to adapt naturally reduced.

Argues, therefore, to link conditions change development priorities and biological provinces.
