These increased CO2 levels trap heat within the atmosphere, making the earth hotter. This process is also known as the \u201cgreenhouse effect.\u201d Here in the U.S., the burning of fossil fuels for electricity and gas emissions for transportation are two huge contributors to the greenhouse effect.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-does-climate-change-mean-for-lakes\">What Does Climate Change Mean for Lakes?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"891\" height=\"673\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/lake-house-fall-flickr.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13858\" style=\"width:567px;height:671px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/lake-house-fall-flickr.jpg 891w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/lake-house-fall-flickr-300x227.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/lake-house-fall-flickr-768x580.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 891px) 100vw, 891px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Climate change operates like a domino effect. When global temperatures rise, it affects every component of the natural world. With bodies of water specifically,&nbsp;<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.worldwildlife.org\/pages\/why-are-glaciers-and-sea-ice-melting\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">rising temperatures cause Antarctic ice caps to melt<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&nbsp;and ocean levels to rise. Besides water level, hotter air means more powerful hurricanes, more frequent droughts, and heavier rainfall. In freshwater systems specifically, this can mean increased flooding and sediment erosion, both of which can affect your shoreline. It also impacts&nbsp;<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.iisd.org\/ela\/blog\/commentary\/lakes-stratify-turn-explain-science-behind-phenomena\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">lake stratification<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, which in turn, is detrimental to the homeostasis of aquatic life.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Although the exact impact of climate change on your lake house will vary based on your region, the two biggest things to keep in mind for your lake property are wind and water. For water specifically, consider both water quality and water table. \u201cYou want to know how the water table and water quality have been impacted in the last five years,\u201d Katie says. \u201cOne of the ways to learn this information is to get the lake association\u2019s minutes from their meetings if they meet monthly.\u201d She also adds that talking to a local insurance broker could be helpful since they know your specific insurance needs.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-can-i-protect-my-lake-home\">How Can I Protect My Lake Home?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" src=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/drain-NL-Landscapes.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15797\" style=\"width:572px;height:381px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/drain-NL-Landscapes.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/drain-NL-Landscapes-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nllandscapes.com\/blog\/6-questions-to-ask-about-french-drains-before-excavation-starts-in-milford-nh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Northern Lights Landscapes<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">As climate change continues to worsen, your lake home\u2019s likelihood of avoiding floods becomes more precarious. Katie adds, \u201cNow more than ever, when you go to buy a property, you need to get flood insurance.\u201d By law, realtors need to disclose to buyers whether their home is in a flood zone. But just because your home isn\u2019t in a flood zone doesn\u2019t mean you should neglect insurance.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Looking at&nbsp;<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/msc.fema.gov\/portal\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">FEMA maps<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, asking for an elevation certificate, and ensuring that your house is on the highest soil point can all help protect your home from flooding. \u201cWater is lazy,\u201d Katie says. \u201cIt goes to the place that\u2019s easiest to run to.\u201d As such, make sure your gutters slope away from your house. The basement is also important to consider. Katie recommends installing both a French drain and a sump pump to ensure that your basement won\u2019t flood.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">As lake homeowners, we\u2019re proclaimed lovers of nature.
