Building Policies for Climate Changes: Lessons from COVID-19
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical and Medical Research - Year 2021, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Aim: Global pandemics have been there since 3000 B.C. The response to pandemics has always brought with its serious consequences. In this paper, we aim to draw critical lessons derived from the recent novel COVID-19 pandemic and how they can be implemented to bring change in the global climate scene. Methods: The research was primarily based on the published journals and research papers done in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic and the mitigation measures taken. Following an analytical approach to this issue, there was an in-depth look into the statistics of the global impact of climate change and how COVID-19 has a similarity to it. Results: From the 4 major studies that the paper takes a deeper look into, there is the realization of the need for cohesive management of global pandemics. There is enough evidence from COVID-19 that delay can be costly and that the digitization of technological systems used to combat these global issues is very important. Conclusion: Based on the inferences established from the paper, there is a cohesive need to integrate all facets of national matters regarding pandemics and global issues. It is only through this that national matters can be addressed and bring an impact in the long term. The paper provides the backbone from which further research may be conducted in the mitigation of climate change issues.
