Rapid environmental degradation is causing a serious threat to security. Do you agree with the statement ? Substantiate your arguments.
Solution
Yes it is true that rapid environmental degradation is causing a serious threat to security. For example, due to global warming, a sea level rise of 1.5 – 2.0 meters would flood 20 per cent of Bangladesh, inundate most of the Maldives and threaten nearly half of the population of Thailand. Since these problems are global in nature, international cooperation are vital, even though it is difficult to acheive
