(b) It cost hundreds of millions of dollars to move fewer than 200,000 people in the inundated small communities mentioned above. Assuming a cost of $500,000 per person, what would it cost to relocate those affected in the cities above? (c) Why might the cost of relocation per person be so high? What factors go into this cost? extinction awaits those that cannot do so fast enough. Here, we'll look first at the effects of changes in climate, the cryosphere, and the hydrosphere on the entire biosphere. We will then turn to anticipated changes in the human population and the effects that our activities have on the rest of the biosphere. (a) Refer to Figure 18.10. Assuming that the percentage of people affected in each city is the same as the percentage of the land area that will be flooded in that city, fill in the following table to show how many people will have to be relocated in the two scenarios shown in the figure.
