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.

Answer:Their treatment of Alison most clearly illustrates Ostracism.

Explanation:

Ostracism occurs when a social group intentionally excludes someone and does not accept them as member of the group.

solong [7]

The position described in the quote (governor) compares closest to the U.S. president. Governors are the chief executive officers of the fifty states and five commonwealths and territories.
