A key contributor highlighted the development of a typology in 2013 that aimed to bridge this gap by introducing the concept of ecological security. This approach seeks to redefine security in the context of climate change, emphasizing the need for political communities to consider the long-term implications of environmental degradation.
The speaker noted that ecological security provides a framework for understanding the relationship between climate change and security, advocating for practices that directly address environmental challenges. The discussion underscored the necessity of integrating ecological considerations into security discourse, suggesting that such a shift could lead to more effective and inclusive responses to the pressing issues posed by climate change.
The meeting concluded with a call for further exploration of ecological security as a vital component of future policy-making, aiming to ensure that both current and future generations are adequately protected from the impacts of climate change.
