The magnitude,
extent and consequences of climate change impacts on the ecosystems and
economic development sectors at the global level and South Asia in particular. We
understand that the cost of climate change to mankind and maintenance of
development is clear. It is also clear that people are dying from malnutrition and
poverty on the one hand and there is a need for diverting our huge human and
economic resources to address the impact of climate change for which developing
and least developed countries (LDC) are not responsible.
