Climate Change & Human Development - UNDP

Climate change is a threat to humanity as a whole. But it is the poor, a constituency with no responsibility for the ecological debt we are running up, who face the most immediate and most severe human costs.

The Human Development Report 2007/2008 calls for a 'twin track' approach that combines stringent mitigation to limit 21st Century warming to less than 2 degree centigrade, with strengthened international cooperation on adaptation.

Truth is in the long run it is the same concern. People need to give up the denial and realize that short term growth that causes large scale catastophy is irrational and people need to pay for the costs they are actually incurring
