Abstract
Climate change poses an immediate threat to national security, calling
on the military to incorporate climate change into broader strategic thinking
about high-risk regions. Climate change is an ever-increasingly presence in our
daily lives, and as such, resilience and mitigation measures addressing its
consequences need to be incorporated into future strategies. The study focuses
to establish linkage between the climate change impacts and implications in the
lives of ordinary people. As greenhouse gas emissions blanket the Earth, they
trap the sun’s heat. This leads to global warming and climate change. The world
is now warming faster than at any point in recorded history. Warmer
temperatures over time are changing weather patterns and disrupting the usual
balance of nature. This poses many risks to human beings and all other forms of
life on Earth. As a result of global warming, the type, frequency and intensity
of extreme events like tropical cyclones, floods, droughts and heavy
precipitation events, are expected to rise even with relatively small average
temperature increases. Climate change needs a global framework for
international cooperation. Adaptation action is a vital part of this framework.
Actions to enable adaptation to climate change pose opportunities to promote
sustainable development. Developing countries needs resources in order to
promote these actions. A successful framework must directly involve assistance
for adaptation in developing countries and least developed countries, given
that they will disproportionately bear the brunt of climate change impacts.
