Most of all, there are a lot of cities on the coast: for example LA, NY, Lisbon, Sydney, Barcelona, Rio de Janeiro. Those cities have a big population. If the sea level rises, people will have to move away from those cities (and if it rises rapidly, they might die in the flood). 

Further, it could contaminate our storages of drinking water (sea water is salty and can't be drunk).

Also, it will mean less land, which also means less land for agriculture.

Explanation:  As the name of this psychological phenomenon implies, it is a reciprocity established between the influence of the environment on the individual, but also the reverse influence of the individual on the environment. This theory of Albert Bandura talks about personal factors and behavior of a person on the one hand, and social circumstances, environment on the other, which exert influence on one another.

So Nadine shows concern for everyone around her, influenced by the environment, claiming that the world is a dangerous place. However, how Nadine influences the environment, according to Bandura, her personal cognitive skills and attitude, that is, her reactions to environmental events, also determines and shapes her thinking about the environment. Thus, the reactions of the individual may be too weak or too strong, at some event, at some point.
