Maldives has been facing a serious problem that may disappear in 50 years! As an archipelago country located in the Indian Ocean, Maldives has become a tourist destination in the hearts of many people.

Its unique island scenery makes it known as "the last paradise on earth in the Indian Ocean" and the most famous honeymoon destination in the world!

Maldives is an archipelago country in the Indian Ocean, about 600 kilometers south of India and about 750 kilometers southwest of Sri Lanka.

The Maldives consists of 1,192 coral islands scattered in the vast Indian Ocean. The entire island is 820 kilometers long from north to south and 130 kilometers wide from east to west, covering a total area of more than 90,000 square kilometers.

But the Maldives has a land area of only 298 square kilometers, making it the smallest country in Asia.

The serious problem that Maldives has been facing is global warming. Scientists have clearly warned that the Maldives may disappear from the earth in 50 years.

The Maldives is a country made up of coral reefs and has the lowest altitude in the world, so it has to face the threat of global warming.

The higher concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is causing the coral reefs in the Maldives to die and thus slowly disappear.

The disappearance of coral reefs will cause a series of serious consequences, and marine animals in the entire food chain that rely on coral reefs as their basic food source will lose food. They either find a new place to survive or starve to death in the same spot, but in either case, the consequences are worse.

The disappearance of the coral reefs also means that the island of coral reefs has disappeared!

Global warming will lead to the melting of the polar glaciers, and as long as a small part of the polar glaciers melts, the Maldives will face extinction. A little more glaciers melt, and more coastal low-elevation cities and countries will be submerged.

Studies have shown that for every 1°C increase in global temperature, the sea level rises by 2.3 meters.

In recent years, the height of sea level rise around the Maldives has been very serious, reaching an astonishing 3-4 mm, while the average altitude of the Maldives is 1.5 meters.

In addition, in 1993, the United Nations Climate Commission predicted that based on the data of sea level rise since 1961, the entire Maldives will be submerged for at most 100 years. You know, this forecast is still based on a global sea level rise of 1.8 mm per year!

Finally, global climate change has not only brought about rising sea levels, but also the blow of various natural disasters. For the Maldives, whether it is a typhoon, flood, or tsunami, as long as the intensity is slightly stronger, it is a disaster!

So, if immediate action is not taken to curb global warming, and the Maldives itself does not take precautions, it may not exist in 50 years!

The most commendable thing about the Maldives is the blue sea, crystal clear waters, blue sky, and a variety of water and underwater sports. Maldives has developed more than 200 islands, of which more than 100 are used for tourism.

Although the life span of Maldives is limited, it can bloom with a different kind of beauty. Just as Tagore said: "Life is as splendid as summer flowers, and death is as quiet and beautiful as autumn leaves", this world is fair, giving the Maldives a paradise-like scenery, but shortening its lifespan.

This is probably the true portrayal of the Maldives! If you have the opportunity, go for a trip. The Maldives in the future may really disappear.
