The photo above was taken in Pensacola Beach‚ Florida in May 2017 at just about sunset at 7:23 PM. As you can see from the picture‚ there is very little beach left in Pensacola. One reason is linked to rising sea levels from global warming of the Earth’s climate system. New ocean water from melting reservoirs of ice could potentially raise the sea level as much as 3 feet by the year 2100 (Florida Oceans and Coastal Council). Increased water temperatures are also linked to increased hurricane activity

Following are the various factors responsible for this extremely uneven distribution of population in the world: a. Geographical factors – Favorable topography‚ availability of mineral and fresh water resources‚ favorable climate and soil fertility are some of the reasons affecting population distribution e.g.‚ Indo Gangetic Plains‚ Diamond Mines of South Africa etc are densely populated. b.
