| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Development and climate change are explicitly interlinked to each other. Climate policy affects development process and development policy affects climate change actions. Development instincts of humans makes them special creature on the earth. Due to development instincts, humans achieved a success in creating the modern world from jungle life (pastoral life). The ultimate objective of all development is about expanding human potential and enlarging human freedom. It is about people developing the capabilities that empower them to make choices and to lead lives that they value. In recent times, climate change threatens to erode human freedoms and limit choices. |
