GLOBAL WARMING: IMPLICATIONS AND ANTICIPATORY ADAPTIVE MEASURESKeywords: global warming , anticipatory adaptive measures , climate change , biophysical impacts Abstract: Our earth is warming up. There is no denying to this fact that the gradual heating up of our globe has a tremendous effect on the climate. It in turn has affected the biotic factors that make up our biosphere, eventually directing the course of our socio-economic development. Some workers are, however, optimistic about this natural phenomenon. Various ways have been suggested to mitigate the effects of global warming, but the damage already done cannot be revoked. Hence, the thing that we are left with is to go for anticipatory adaptive measures so as to tone down the intensity of future implications of global warming.
