2. Influence of Climate Change on
Diplomacy
 We Have Indeed Created Man In The
Best Of Moulds
 Then Do We Abuse Him (to be) The
Lowest Of The Low ?

3. HOLY QUR’AN
Man therefore is a
representative of Allah
Almighty. Man is a steward
and a trustee entrusted with
the responsibility to establish
and maintain justice and
peace on earth (Q. 33:72).

4. Islamic Perception
Man in short must serve his Creator by taking
good care of what the Creator has entrusted
him with which includes himself, other live
forms and the environment. Man’s failure to
properly observe this function of trusteeship
could very well lead to dire consequences in
this life and the Hereafter.
(Ebraima Kebba Saidy, Imam Daru Salaam
Islamic Centre and Member: Imam Committee
– Islamic Council of Norway)

6. Climate Change & Diplomacy

7. It usually refers to international diplomacy, the conduct
of international relations through the intercession of
professional diplomats with regard to issues of peace-
making, trade, war, economics, culture, environment,
and human rights. International treaties are usually
negotiated by diplomats prior to endorsement by
national politicians. In an informal or social sense,
diplomacy is the employment of tact to gain strategic
advantage or to find mutually acceptable solutions to a
common challenge, one set of tools being the phrasing of
statements in a non-confrontational, or polite manner.

24. Availability of Marine Resources will strengthen
trade that will lead to formulation of new global
alliances with a view to enhance diplomacy for
global security

25. Arctic Provides 10% of Fish Catch which is
likely to increase due to warmer
environments

29. Apart from affording the opportunity to use the open
passes as trade routes in the highlands increase in
temperature will also have influence on the conflict
zones like Siachen Glacier where the glaciers are
melting so snow is causing multiple effects on the
mountainous conflict zone. On one side the melting
of ice is making the movement easy. However on
the other side it will make the deployed troops more
vulnerable to enemy observation and action.
Increase in temperature is causing hazardous slides
and avalanches. Our memories about unfortunate
Gayari Incidence of 12 April 2012 are still fresh
where 138 soldiers and civilians were buried alive
under the snow.

33. Due to Polio UN has imposed Conditions for
International Travel over Pakistan due to which its
diplomacy is being affected in such a critical global
scenario

36. Colonial era-1769 to 1947 witnessed many
issues of rights to land and sea

37. Recommendations
 UNCLOS mainly works on codes and conventions
those have been evolved to regulate the maritime
activities although it provides set of rules for
further maritime security cooperation. However it
can work more efficiently if the conventions are
transformed in to rules and principles.
 Although High Seas are a common heritage but
their utilisation should be pragmatic and more
disciplined. History has witnessed the involvement
of United Nation Peace Keeping Force to make
and maintain peace in Balkans and many
countries in African Peninsula so why not UN
Peace Keeping should try to resolve all the
maritime issues.

38. Recommendations
 It is imperative to resolve the land issue as soon
as possible so that threat of any possible nuclear
conflict in Indian Ocean or in Nord Baltic is
averted. As such conflicts can have far reaching
and devastating impact on global diplomacy.
 There is a need to form equal policies at UN level
to extricate resources with a view to formulate
rights on the people who have migrated to explore
the possible locations like Siberia and Alaska.
Moreover such people should provide with
modern technologies so as to facilitate the
migration or shifting that will be helpful to
distribute the human and human resources
equally across the globe.
