O viziune strategică a securităţii mediului în era globalizării
Strategic vision on environmental security in the age of globalization

Summary/Abstract: Environmental change is global; no part of the world is spared and we have to face change now; ignoring the challenge is not an option if our children are to thrive. In an increasingly connected world, security is more than just the absence of war; it depends on diverse, but linked – indeed, often competing - factors such as political, social, economic, and environmental interests. Environmental degradation may destabilize societies by reducing economic opportunity. Environment is thus central to modern security and the question for policymakers is how, in practical terms, to align these diverse interests. Environmental security is therefore the ability of individuals to avoid or adapt to environmental change so that things that are important to their well-being are not substantially negatively affected.
