"And do you know the impact that will occur due to global warming?" this time it's Morgan who asks.
"No, what's the impact? it must be severe," Vincent guessed.
"Yeah, quite severe, such as outdoor work could become unbearable, higher electric bills and more blackouts, more allergic and other health risks, food will be more expensive and variety may suffer, water quality could suffer, outdoor exercise and recreational sports will become more difficult and many more.." replied Morgan with slightly sad face.

"There are some plants that grow better in the presence of higher carbon dioxide levels and appear to be more drought tolerant. But there are also downside, weeds, many invasive plant species, and insect pests will also thrive in a warmer world. The availability of water will have an impact on drier agriculture. At some point, the benefits to plants from increased carbon dioxide will likely be outweighed by the negative effects." replied Morgan with a long explanation.

A lot has changed since logging, such as climate change, my area is often flooded, and fewer crops but luckily now my area was improved," explained Morgan.
