CLIMATE CHANGE CONFERENCE held in Chennai The Climate Change Conference was hosted by the Trade Commissioner of the Indian Ocean Trade Council Hon. Vadamalai Subash with the presence of the HIgh Commissioners of Jamaica and Charge D Affaires of the Kingdom of L.esotho in Chennai on the 7th June. Hon. Subash told the delegates how the Climate Change Is the Biggest Threat to Indian Ocean Security and how this crisis requires collective action, and should serve as a catalyst for the revival of the Indian Ocean Rim Association. The Trade commissioner also shed light on the potential disasters that the world and the Indian Ocean region might have to face in the coming decades. "This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the issues concerning the Indo-Pacific. But the threat of an existential crisis due to natural disasters for a number of island states in the region requires a joint plan of action to tackle the current situation" he said. He also mentioned how the decline of multilateralism and multilateral institutions has led to a lack of accountability among states in responding to global challenges. He appreciated the presence of the Jamaican High Commissioner HE Jason Keats Hall and the Charge D Affiares of Kingdom of Lesotho HE Mr Thabang Linus Kholumo. Both of them participated in the dialogue of the multilateral body with the ability to promote cooperation which is the need of the hour. Climate change and the potential havoc it might bring to the Indian Ocean region can and must serve as a wake up call. However, this must also be used as a base to address other long-standing problems concerning the region as a whole. Global warming and its implications for the Indian Ocean region remain the foremost issue that needs to be addressed. With warming levels estimated to be three times higher than in the Pacific, coastal areas across the Indian Ocean region are likely to see a continuous rise in sea levels, resulting in severe coastal erosion. This in turn will result in frequent flooding in low-lying areas. The Indian Ocean is rising at a level of 3.7 millimeters annually, and extreme sea disasters can be expected nearly every year.
