WORKSHOP “The impact of climate change on national security” (Phase II)

Summary/Abstract: Climate change is a set of impacts caused both by natural causes and, directly or indirectly, by human activity. These effects are felt in the form of long-term changes in weather patterns, in short, climate changes that can threaten people’s security, the environment and development conditions in all sectors and areas. In other terms, climate change is a deeply chronic phenomenon, in the sense that it occurs over a long period of time, with effects that are not yet felt very often, acutely. The real issue is that, as with any chronic dysfunction, the closer we get to what is called ‘the point of no return’ and the longer it takes to prevent it, the more the diversity, complexity, and scale of measures to deal with the effects of climate change increase, and the more serious the impact.
