ABSTRACT | ||
Against the backdrop of growing interest in environmental degradation or climate change in and around the world, the local level impact factors are very important and interesting. This article basically explores two critical issues; they are as such; first the submergence of Indian Sundarban Islands due to climate change and secondly human security which is obviously a substantive question. The article shows that whether humans are safe or not in this region. In Indian Sundarban, non-traditional security threats are the cause of concern to all of us, because this region is one of the low lying areas amongst other low lying areas in India. So, in terms of security, there is prevailing risk and vulnerability in this region. This region is approaching various non traditional security threats like energy security, food security, health security, environmental migration, water security, terrorism, human security, social and economic security, etc. Here the present study is more concern about environmental security and human security. Examining the recent ups and downs of the harsh weather condition intersects the natural disaster with manmade disaster. Keywords: Sundarban, Environment, Human Security, Non-Traditional Security Threat, Disaster. |
