- Summary/Abstract:As it is known, the security concept has been reshaped more comprehensively after the Cold War ended and since the 1990s. Global-scale issues such as the environment, migration, water and food safety, and energy have gained importance during these years. Global climate change is another issue that has gained importance within the framework of the new security understanding. The expansion of the understanding of international security, including climate change, has also been reflected in the United Nations (UN) and its activities. In this context, since 1990, there has been a global struggle under the UN framework to combat global climate change. The UN’s combat against climate change can be examined in four fundamental processes. The first stage includes the Stockholm Conference in 1972 , which is one of the first steps in the search for a solution to climate change problems in the international arena. It was the first time that the environment was brought up as a major issue at a global conference, and it is often regarded as the turning point of environmental issues to take place in international law. The second phase covers the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), which emerged as a result of the Rio Conference in 1992. It was the most important step to address the impact of global warming, which also forms the basis for future international climate conventions. While the Kyoto Protocol, which was signed in 1997 at the 3rd COP (Conference of the Parties) , constitutes the third stage; The Paris Agreement, which emerged at COP21 and entered into force in 2016, can be stated as the fourth stage of this struggle. In a general framework, it can be said that the most concrete development that shows the awareness of the UN on this issue is the Framework Convention on Climate Change, which was carried out under its leadership. In the next period, the UN has shown that it approaches this problem with determination with the COPs, which are held per year and thus have become routine, and it has begun to reap the fruits of these initiatives and efforts relatively with the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Climate Agreement.

- Summary/Abstract:In the post-Cold War period, the security perception of states has changed compared to the period when security was pursued through national power elements. Since the security perceptions of states changed in the post-Cold War period, the measures they took in this context also changed . This change has transformed the perception of security from being focused solely on the state to a multi-dimensional field of analysis in which humans are one of the main focal points. This change in security perception, which is analyzed with national power elements in realist theory, has found a place in Buzan’s five-sector analysis security perception, and security has begun to be examined on political, economic, social, environmental and military dimensions.

- Summary/Abstract:Security in today’s global world is affected by many newer and more complex challenges which put humanity on the edge of multiple thresholds. Environmental challenges such as climate change, pollution, food and water scarcity, loss of biodiversity, large-scale human migrations, and widespread outbreaks of diseases make it more difficult to ensure global peace and security. Activities that are conducted to satisfy the nutrition and shelter needs of the rapidly increasing world population bring along widespread damage and annihilation of limited resources including water, soil, air, and forests. The deterioration of the vital resources puts the biodiversity and the human generations at risk. Moreover, climate change is worsening the situation and becoming a grave risk to the security and even survival of the planet. Admitting this reality, not only academics but also the politicians have highlighted the need for the securitization of non-military subjects such as renewable resources, environmental change, climate change, and demographic issues.

- Summary/Abstract:As noted in a United Nations (UN) report, warfare adversely affects ecosystems at all levels. The degree to which warfare impacts on populations and ecosystem depends on the type of disturbance, the ecosystem’s sensitivity and resilience, and the timing of the impacts. Warfare invariably causes destruction, leading to the release of toxic compounds, death of wildlife, and polluted air. War-induced pollution contaminates water bodies, soil, and the atmosphere, making areas uninhabitable for humans. The use of chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear weapons has exacerbated the strain on ecosystems and the environment.

- Summary/Abstract:In the unfolding narrative of global political dynamics, particularly in the realms of climate change, economic policies, trade agreements, and environmental concerns, there is a compelling need to examine the intricate web of power relations that continues to shape the global landscape. This chapter seeks to provide a comprehensive analysis of these dynamics, exploring how historical patterns of influence and control persist in modern frameworks, from economic neocolonialism to climate change negotiations. Our exploration begins with an examination of the continuing impact of colonial legacies in current geopolitical and economic structures, where former colonial powers maintain influence over their erstwhile colonies through sophisticated, albeit subtle, mechanisms of control.

- Summary/Abstract:Security studies, which generally focused on military security within the framework of the bipolar balance of power during the Cold War, have started to expand and deepen since the 1980s. In this context, the world ecosystem has become one of the reference objects of security. One of the actors affected by this situation was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), the leader of the Eastern bloc in the bipolar system. Especially after the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident in 1986, environmental security became more important for the USSR and subsequently for the Russian Federation (RF). RF’s environmental security is of great importance both for itself and for the world for various reasons. First of all, the RF is the largest country in terms of area in the world with 11 time zones. On the other hand, it is second only to the United States of America (USA) in terms of greenhouse gas emissions per capita in 2018. Again, the RF has the highest greenhouse gas intensity as a percentage of gross national product (GDP) in 2018. It is one of the most important countries causing regional and global environmental degradation. The RF is among the countries with the largest reserves of natural resources in the world. For example, some of the Boreal forests, which constitute 20% of the world’s forests, are located in the RF. These forests are of great importance as they are the world’s carbon sinks. Lake Baikal, which contains 20% of the world’s fresh water, is located in the RF. The RF is also a major fishing power and holds the majority of the world’s oil and natural gas reserves. It is home to rich mineral resources including coal, gold, diamonds and iron. All these factors allow the RF to gain an important place in the environmental policy of the region and the world. This study argues that although the RF considers environmental security an important issue for itself and the world, it has failed to prioritize environmental security within the framework of its dense legal regulations, its complex organizational structure, its natural resource-oriented economy, and its intensifying political, military, and economic confrontation with the West. The study will first examine the history of the USSR’s environmental security practices, followed by an analysis of the RF’s environmental security problems and the RF’s environmental security policy. It will end with an evaluation in the conclusion section.

The new approach adopted gives priority to disaster hazards pre-disaster activities, that is, ‘risk management’ and ‘avoidance’ activities, rather than post-disaster activities. International organizations have defined the issue of avoiding natural disasters as a prerequisite for sustainable development. Many countries in the world have renewed their legal and institutional structures in line with this common discourse.

- Summary/Abstract:The world was struggling with serious climatic irregularities in 1200 BC, For this reason, agricultural production, which was the main source of livelihood of the Palace Economies, declined, and even famines broke out, and the people who had to leave their homelands in a wide area from Central Asia to Central Europe began to destabilize and shake the existing social structures. Especially at the beginning of the 12th century BC, Egypt was deprived of the rainfall and fertility brought by the monsoon rains due to the suddenly cooling climate and entered a period of decline that would never return to its former splendor. During this period, all state systems in the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean, except Egypt, collapsed. States such as Hittites, Mycenaeans, and the administrative systems of cities such as Ugarit disintegrated. This period will be followed by a completely different period that will last for a few centuries and is also called the “Dark Ages” by historians.

- Summary/Abstract:Cities – as ultimate human artifacts of history - have always been forged in areas where natural resources and the social structures that will process these resources overlap in the early periods of their historical formation. The first settlements were formed close to water resources, the first source of natural resources. The building was formed in the nearby walls of forests, which are the basic elements for production, soil, masonry, stone artifacts and wood/timber stocks that can be used as building materials of security fortifications/buildings and heating infrastructure. As the habitats of mankind, cities have established structures around these source-production-labor cycles starting from the first ages.

- Keywords:Climate change; aviation sustainability; transportation; advantages; transportation industry;
- Summary/Abstract:Air transportation is a type of transportation that has irreplaceable advantages in the transportation industry. It has many benefits and conveniences, such as saving time in intercontinental travel, providing employment opportunities directly or indirectly, and significantly supporting tourism, which is a large sector. This situation can be explained not only by the conveniences it provides but also by the high demand data associated with these facilities. Considering the number of 4.5 billion passengers carried in 2019 alone and the annual demand growth rate (4.5%), aviation will continue to grow actively and be the most preferred mode of transportation in the coming years. On the other hand, what makes aviation indispensable on a global scale is its economic contribution. The rate of aviation in global gross domestic product was announced as 4.1%. These and similar prominent aviation benefits do not cause interest in the industry to be only a matter of demand or preference. Aviation also comes to the fore in sustainability and climate issues. In addition to its industry volume and global contributions, its effects are also examined and discussed. In line with the studies and agreements made on climate change, especially in the last decade, some steps have been taken for aviation activities to prevent global warming. Of course, aviation impacts were first examined with greenhouse gas emissions and scenarios were established to slow down, reduce, and neutralize the increase in emission impacts. However, before the dates were determined as turning points, due to technological developments in aviation, fewer emission data were announced, especially in the 2000s compared to the 1990s. This may indicate that aviation shows promise in adapting to the set goals. However, especially in the 2020s, carbon emissions from aviation are one of the issues that are closely monitored, and regulations are being introduced to the industry accordingly.

- Summary/Abstract:When people reflect upon human decision-making processes, they often presume that logic and pragmatism govern the outcome, but this is rarely the case. To fully grasp this idea, one needs to look at the fundamental components of the information processing procedure. First, a stimulus enters the perceptual world of a human being. This hypothetical stimulus’ perceptual properties must be processed by the appropriate brain region for it to be “perceived.” During the initial stages of the operation, fundamental physical stimulus properties are processed. However, this represents only a minor component of the overall process. The most crucial step is to ascribe a meaning to the stimulus. It is at this very step that most individual variances emerge.

- Summary/Abstract:Although the climate, which fundamentally affects the living and plant life in the region it dominates, has changed since the existence of the world, these changes have occurred over millions of years. The rapidly increasing production and consumption frenzy that started with the Industrial Revolution caused the ozone layer, which forms the outer layer of the atmosphere, to be depleted, and thus the world began to be exposed to harmful ultraviolet rays from the sun. This situation caused the temperature increases/decreases, which could take place over millions of years, to occur in short periods such as a few years, and the climate, which affected all life forms, began to change rapidly.

- Summary/Abstract:After the universe was formed, galaxies, suns, planets and other celestial bodies came into being. This process, which lasts millions of years, consists of continuous change. The universe, which emerged as a result of the Big Bang, was formed approximately 14 billion years ago as a result of an explosion from a very dense and hot point. This situation consists of the universe exploding from an entity, which is expressed as a particular unity, and revealing billions of entities as a result of the big bang. Since the formation of the universe, called the Blanc period, four fundamental forces (gravity, electromagnetic, strong and weak forces) have come together in a particular formation. First the gravitational force, then the others are separated. The separation of forces began to cool the universe, and this cooling caused certain anomalies in the universe. These anomalies caused distortions. These symmetry disruptions have caused various topological defects to occur in the universe. As a result of topological distortions in the universe, symmetrical distortions, zero-dimensional monopoles and one-dimensional string structures have been formed . The universe is constantly expanding. These expansions are like inflating a balloon. What are the mechanisms that inflate this balloon? Thus, what kind of theory can be created that combines the four fundamental forces? Various theories and approaches have been created to answer these questions.
