Abstract :
One of the problems in today's world is climate change, which has led to fundamental changes in the economic and social conditions of the world. Despite the fact that the effects of climate change threaten living conditions in large parts of the world, various groups of activists have failed to improve the climate regime. It Is natural that those countries most affected by climate change should look for ways to improve the climate regime both through legal methods and other less formal methods such as recognizing climate change as a security issue and environmental problem. The purpose of this article is to examine climate change and international security. The research method is descriptive-analytical and information was collected using library sources. The findings have shown that climate changes such as the warming of the earth’s temperature, the occurrence of natural disasters such as floods, tsunamis and droughts have many effects on the economic and social situation. Consequences such as creating a platform for international conflicts, increasing internal conflicts and insecurity, the spread of infectious diseases, immigration, political destabilization, and ethnic and internal wars are among the results of climate change. For this reason, climate change and environmental problems can be considered as one of the influential elements in international security.
