Ramification of Global Warming

activation of strange pathogens and outbreaks of infectious diseases are no doubt detrimental to human society and there would be a question mark on the survival of the population, especially in Africa, Asia, and even developed parts of the world. Continuous heatwaves have marked dangerous health-related susceptibilities and in the future, such vulnerabilities may reach beyond manageable levels. In the past, widespread diseases had been a cause of the extermination of human societies. Therefore, the swiftness and rate of recurrence of ecological disasters have seriously challenged the defense experts with new realities and demanded new lines of proactive ecological security. They may initiate serious analysis of horrific impacts associated with global warming because human existence is at stake, and ecological issues have remained common to humanity. A collective response through an honest and trusted global mechanism is the need of time. Indeed, the UN and the developed world have the moral reasonability to support vulnerable developing states as they lack the capacity to deal with hazardous changes in climate. Although the UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change) has provided a mechanism of green climate fund to cope with financial losses and budgetary deficits due to ecological havoc, there is a dire need for an effective global defense mechanism to deal with the security ramifications of global warming.

Through climate security initiatives, developing nations would achieve sustainable development. Besides UNFCCC and IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change), UNSC (United Nations Security Council) should put effort and extensive deliberations on climate security issues and their tactical ramifications. The global forums having adequate knowledge and capacity must play an effective role in securing world peace and security. Their pragmatic contributions will allow climate alliances, joint roles, and bringing together member states for critical scenarios of defending and facing the global warming havoc.

More relevantly, the tackling of environmental harms through law has traditionally focused on the degradation of the quality of environmental media, particularly air, water, and land, especially where there are threats to human health, with limited incursions into other aspects of natural resource protection including conservation and biodiversity. It has encompassed tasks such as the management and control of pollution, toxic wastes, and activities that are a nuisance or prejudicial to health. It has moved on to address more complex harms, often byproducts of technological development: such as the chemical impacts of lead ingestion on the neurological functions of organisms; and of CFCs in producing ozone depletion in the upper atmosphere. Today, particularly in policy debates discussing the urgency of global warming, there are the more intractable problems that follow in the wake of the atmospheric build-up of greenhouse gasses (especially carbon dioxide and methane). Here, whilst doubts persist as to the rate of global temperature increase, the serious nature of resulting threats (likely within the lifetimes of many living today) for current forms of planetary life, ourselves included, are now accepted nearunanimously in scientific circles. Yet, policy

and law in this area has thus far made only limited contributions towards countering the grave risks involved. We need from the outset a working definition for an environment that lies at the heart of our lives and our cultural and physical survival on the planet Earth.

Global warming as a threat multiplier is continuously causing extraordinary mega-disasters and remains destructive beyond human ingenuity. With its catastrophic complexities, it has become a direct threat to the human survival and security of the nations, which is based on the human scarcity on the global level other than improving security threats. It has made world leaders think and devise policies that create global resilience to cope with unusual security challenges. Numerous ways of reducing global warming effects and adaptation drives can help green growth. Experts are trying various ways for effective climate change adaptations and these are possible only via the cooperation of all stakeholders. Mutual pacification of interregional problems and transboundary issues would contribute to global peace and development and help tackle the issues of global warming.
