An increase in global temperatures would most likely influence global sea levels by causing sea levels to rise. Planting fewer types of corn in fields would make the corn crops more vulnerable to plant pathogens. Draining a wetland to develop a new park would have the most negative impact on biodiversity in a small region by destroying natural habitats.
