And this is where we talk about the climate change shuffle, as a bird and moon story you know so, they said that it is a nature, it is a very complex phenomenon to understand nature because each and everything is linked with another thing, it is not individual, it is not an isolated aspect.

So, now these butterflies you know it is heading from north so, maybe certain conditions are now in the colder areas are no more cold now, they are getting warmer. So, the migratory species now, in fact if you ever go to Pulicat lake and now, the number of species have come down which are migrated from Canada and similarly, in Rajasthan the migratory birds which are coming down so, the number of birds are coming down so because the water resources are diminishing.

And the mountain creatures like squirrels and all, they are all climbing to escape the heat, and different parts of the climate have affect the creatures differently, it is not the same way, a 2 birds will be affected, they affect in a different way because of the nature of the biological nature.

And it also can alter the relationships you know, so when we talk about the Darwin's theory and all these things, as the climate change happens even the colour of a particular species also changes, the nature like we talk about giraffe and how it has changed, today the long neck giraffe how it has emerged so, which means these are all some of the evidences of that times climate change and today what we are seeing as a species is not the original one.

And it also can cause conflicts you know so, this is how a big cycle of system is there, also want to see that you know many scientists have been advocating that global warming is real, but some have been arguing, there is no evidence to prove it that it is not real.

but then the thing is you have different evidences, one is the sea is melting, the forest is becoming too hot because, on one side the deforestation is also happening, because they were either improving the farming techniques or they are going for the real estate ventures or the land use aspects of it.

So, scientists were worried about it, the communities were worried about it, the politicians were worried about it so, there is a big institutional set up which is now concerned about this climate change but it is not a very drastic thing but it is coming in a very gradual process long when we say about drought it is not just today it is happening, it is coming from years and years.

And this is where now we are talking about 2 aspects; one is the mitigation, and adaptation when we talk about mitigation, it is any action taken to permanently eliminate or reduce the long-term risks and hazards of climate change to human life and property.

So, climate adaptation; it refers to the abilities of a system to adjust to a climate change including climate variability and extremes to moderate potential damage, to take advantage of opportunities, or to cope up with the consequences.

When we talk about the greenhouse gas emissions in the 1980’s, it was mostly as a scientist concerns, but as we moved on from 90’s, it has also moved towards the social; the social concern as well and the political concern.

So, there are a lot of strategies which is actually working out as a global level as well. And climate adaptation refers to adjustment in natural human systems in response to actual or expected climatic stimuli or their effects which moderates harm or exploits beneficial opportunities.
