◉ [tex] \bm{coastal flooding}[/tex]

◉ [tex] \bm{droughts}[/tex]

○ [tex] \bm{hurricanes}[/tex]

○ [tex] \bm{spreading \: disease}[/tex]

[tex]\huge\underline{\underline{\boxed{\mathbb {EXPLANATION:}}}}[/tex]

[tex]\leadsto[/tex] Both would be the consequence of the melting of polar ice, causing sea levels to rise, leaving coastal and low-altitude areas uninhabitable. Even though hurricanes can make life difficult in areas where they are frequent, it is an actual problem and not specific to climate change. Diseases aren't caused by climate change.

Hello and Good Morning/Afternoon

Welcome to Brainly!

Let's take this problem step-by-step:

Original problem: Which impact of climate change can displace people? Select all that apply.

Let's take a look at the choices:

  • coastal flooding [tex]\checkmark[/tex]            [tex]\hookrightarrow \text { When climate changes occurs, the temperature will rise and the icecaps will melt}\\ \hookrightarrow \text {When the icecaps melt, more water is added to the ocean}\\ \hookrightarrow \text {Areas that are at low attitudes like the coastline will flood as the ocean level rises}\\\hookrightarrow \text {People are forced to move away from the flood and thus are displaced}[/tex]

  • droughts[tex]\checkmark[/tex]         [tex]\hookrightarrow \text {Climate changes causes warm temperatures}\\\hookrightarrow \text {Warm temperatures causes water to evaporate}\\\hookrightarrow \text {When the water evaporates and doesn't come back, there is a drought}\\\hookrightarrow \text{People are forced to move to an area with water and thus are displaced}[/tex]

  • hurricanes[tex]\checkmark\\[/tex]      [tex]\hookrightarrow \text {Climate change causes storms like hurricanes to become more intense and frequent}\\\hookrightarrow \text {Hurricans causes great damage to the area its hits}\\\hookrightarrow \text{People are forced to move away from the area of the hurricane to an area of safety}\\\hookrightarrow \text{Thus they are displaced}[/tex]

  • spreading disease[tex]x[/tex]

         [tex]\hookrightarrow \text {Spreading diseases is an indirect effect of climate change}[/tex]

Answer: coastal flooding, droughts, hurricanes

Hope that helps!
