is global warming a threat for human if so then how ?
Answers
These changes have led to the emergence of large-scale environmental hazards to human health; such as extreme weather, ozone depletion, increased danger of wildfires, loss of biodiversity, stresses to food-producing systems, and the global spread of infectious diseases.
Due to the harmful hazards of global warming and climate change, many people have been migrating from their homes. In the mid-1990’s, about 25 million people migrated because of environmental hazards i.e. floods, land degradation and pollution. By 2050, an estimated 200 million migrants are expected which is 10 times the current number. Climate change is making certain parts of the world less viable to live by increasing the frequency and intensity of floods and storms, making food and water supplies less reliable due to which people are being forced to migrate to flee for their lives. Environmental degradation, a major cause of population displacement, is socially and spatially constructed. The environmental displacement is basically caused by lack of water, salination of irrigated lands, depletion of biodiversity and desertification. Climate change is unpredictable when added to existing social, economic and political situations, and it has the potential to ignite conflicts with disastrous consequences. Those who migrate are named as climate or environmental refugees. Refuges require all human rights i.e. home, job. The protection of these environmentally displaced person is paramount in context of the law. These refuges also burden the already existing community and economy.
