abstract

  • In recent years there has been a lot of discussion on global warming and climate change and its implications for social development - an area that Mohan has devoted his life to. It is now accepted that climate change is real and its impacts will be felt across different sectors ranging from water resources to industries to social arenas. In coming years, people will be affected across the world even more irrespective of their contribution to the cause of global warming and climate change. The very fabric of our society and the goal of social work will be impacted just as well. Climate change is not just a scientific issue, it is just as much a social issue. This article briefly discusses global warming and climate change, their causes, effects on society, future projections and their effects on social development. 2010 Taylor & Francis.
