The Impact Of Climate Change On Cambodia’s Maritime Environment: The Way Ahead

Abstract

There is a variety of problems in maritime security around the world. For instance, the issue of climate change, which has long been acknowledged as a major problem for modern society, is also a significant challenge for maritime security. It exacerbates existing 
problems while creating new ones as well. The recommended solution to climate change is to mitigate the cause in the first place by either limiting the emission of greenhouse gas or preserving the nature. However, these mitigation approaches need to be carefully 
considered before implementation owing to numerous constraints such the need for economic development for each country, the livelihood of the people, the capital fund for protecting the environment and the willingness to collaborate. This study has endeavored to investigate the impact of climate change on Cambodia’s maritime environment. It has also looked at ways for Cambodia to solve the problem in order to assist policy-makers, planners and the general public that use the maritime environment.
