The effect of climate change has been evident in the world with changing monsoon pattern, erratic rainfall followed by floods, increase in number of disasters has huge implications, mainly on marginalized communities and more on women and children. This places the world in the dilemma of not being able to feed its population by reducing agricultural production and increasing investment in social infrastructure, namely water supply and irrigation. With the efforts of local communities, the State has its work cut out for it to design and implement effective adaptation strategies to address climate change and reduce the impact on economic and social development, one of the key priorities of development plans. Climate change is not just a science that we must learn, but it is an integral part of our lives, since our birth and will continue to last. The change in temperature around was your alibi to convince you of this fact. It has great importance as it contributes to disasters and aggravates their impacts. The news has endorsed it starting from the GLOF of Humla, the floods in various parts of the world and the erratic rains of the last two years. All these events were evidence of climate change if not only the impact of land use change, deforestation and desertification. Lack of sensitivity to landscape changes and encroachment on natural habitat has led us to blame ourselves and our need to burn fossil fuels. The romanticism about fossil fuels must fade, or it will be held responsible for all our future problems if we don't act now to stop this nuisance. Literature Review The most general Wikipedia definition of climate change is “a change in the statistical properties of the planet.” climate... half of the paper... without strategies and plans. The ability to reduce vulnerability to disasters is related to the effectiveness of the preparedness system. So climate change has an impact on the country's economy, but there is a need to continue providing consultancy techniques to be resilient enough to adapt and cope with this unwanted burden. This also requires a major change in lifestyle, a transformation in how to manage land and forests and a new paradigm shift to act differently than in the past. Act now, act together and act differently: these are the steps that can put a climate-smart world within our reach.
