Regional Cooperation and Responding to the Challenge

Climate change is a development concern with severe implications in the whole world specially South Asia. All countries in the South Asia are already affected by adverse climate impacts. The costs of extreme weather, including floods, droughts and storms, are already rising. Countries in the South Asia and North Asia need to prepare from now to manage what is unavoidable, and avoid the unmanageable. The south Asian Countries, particular the poorest in the countries, are already suffering from negative impact due to extreme events and variability. Changes are already having major impacts on the South Asian economies and on the lives and livelihoods of millions of poor people. 

Climate impacts will affect the entire population of the whole world in the coming decades, in one form or the other. Sustainable Development is understood as improvement in well-being of people, environment and economy. Development must ensure reducing the risks posed by climate change to people's lives ad livelihoods. Development itself serves as a key to adaption by enhancing resilience and increasing capacity to respond effectively to climatic challenges. On the other hand, adaptation is vital for development and progress and reduces costs of natural disasters. Ultimately, adaption to climate change requires economy wide planning and regional cooperation. The links between development and adaption has implications for official development assistance, both in terms of scale and focus. Equity warrants assistance from developed countries as main source of polluters who should compensate for the costs incurred to climate change victims in developing countries particularly the poor and already vulnerable suffering for what they are not responsible.  

All these efforts and challenge can bring some result when you can get a really beautiful environment with less disaster. Because we can not stop the disasters but we can stop the pollution and disasters which make by human.
