Population growth and climate change agenda Highly populated area? High energy consumption?

Hunger is not the result of ‘too many mouths’ to feed People go hungry because they do not have the land on which to grow food or the money with which to buy it.

(ARROW) Women’s human right to choose about her fertility Eg: China’s one child policy, Son’s preference in South-Asia

Why global south more vulnerable? What is global south?? 20% of the population are responsible for 80% of the accumulated carbon build-up in the atmosphere. the vast majority of population growth is taking place in developing countries where average consumption and GHG emission rates are far lower Blame to global south whereas North is mostly responsible Some glimpse of the effect

Water scarcity in south Asia

Women being most vulnerable to bear the cost of Climate change (life saving skills during calamities, collector for basic supply to family, migration, spousal migration- HIV) Gendered agenda- Capitalism in Climate change agenda
