The 8 wonders of the world are disappearing, if you do not go may not be able to see

There are so many places in this world worth visiting, but while nature creates beauty, it also adds a countdown to their lives. According to the available information, we have compiled a list of 8 magical places that are slowly disappearing, hoping to keep each planned scenery in your heart.

1、Australia Great Barrier Reef

• Countdown to disappearance: 8 years

This is the world's largest coral colony, and there is a tropical rainforest listed as a World Natural Heritage Site, with clear water and fine sand, which is the only remaining clean land in the world. However, human overfishing near the Great Barrier Reef has destroyed the ecosystem of the waters and put various endangered species at risk of extinction.

2、Amazon Rainforest

• Countdown to disappearance: 10 years

We all know that this is the "lungs of the earth", in addition to the rich vegetation here also has a large amount of fresh water resources. But excessive logging has destroyed much of the world's largest rainforest. If the situation does not improve, the Amazon rainforest may eventually disappear.

3、Dead Sea

• Countdown to disappearance: 18 years

Located on the border of Israel, Palestine and Jordan, the Dead Sea is the lowest lake in the world, and it's very pleasant to float on the surface of the sea playing with your phone and reading a book. Due to mining operations, more than 7.5 million cubic meters of seawater are pumped out of the Dead Sea every year. If you want to experience the feeling of floating on the surface of the Dead Sea, you'd better hurry up!

4、Venice, Italy

• Countdown to disappearance: 38 years

Venice is born of water, beautiful because of water, and flourishing because of water. It has unique Renaissance and Byzantine architecture, St. Mark's Square, which was hailed by Napoleon as "the most beautiful living room in Europe", and the breathtakingly beautiful cloisters.

But with years of flooding eroding Venice, the ground is currently sinking by 0.5 centimeters per year, and with sea levels rising due to global warming, Venice is expected to be submerged by the sea soon if not rescued. In less than 50 years, Venice may become a paradise in the water.

5、Maldives

• Countdown to disappearance: 38 years

Maldives, where there is crystal clear water, pure white clean beach, is how many people's eyes of the honeymoon mecca, however, as the whole Earth's climate continues to warm, the sea level continues to rise, this beautiful island country will be buried in the sea in 38 years at the earliest.

6、 South and Arctic landscapes

• Countdown to disappearance: 48 years

The Earth's South and North poles are distributed over a large area of glaciers. Climate change and global warming have a deadly threat to them. Studies show that the Antarctic Peninsula ice cap has been melting faster in recent years than at any time in the past few thousand years. These dramatic changes are almost certainly due to global warming caused by human activity.

7. Peru Machu Picchu

• Countdown to disappearance: 48 years

Machu Picchu was once a thriving city of the Inca Empire, but after the empire fell in the 16th century, only this megalithic city with its 200 buildings of all kinds remained, although its ancient stone foundations are increasingly worn and damaged by the constant influx of tourists due to its location on a geological fault zone. Commercial development around the site has left Machu Picchu under threat of landslide, and the city could disappear from the face of the earth at any time.

8、India Taj Mahal

• Countdown to disappearance: 50 years

The Taj Mahal, built entirely of white marble, appears at different times of the day and in different natural light, its harmonious symmetry, gardens and water reflections blending together to create a miracle that has amazed countless visitors.

Regrettably, however, the toxic emissions from the surrounding factories led to excessive acid rain, causing damage to the exquisite carvings and gemstone inlays, and the original white Taj Mahal was left with yellow patches and irreparable damage to many parts of it.
