The systematic changes to the environment that takes place on a planetary scale may in a manner influence the global markets, the geopolitics as well as other social systems in a different manner when compared to the location-specific shocks in weather conditions that are totally uncorrelated with the state of weather in certain other regions. The predictable weather changes as well as the unpredictable nature of weather shocks may in a way generate various different social responses regardless of their state and nature (whether identical or not).The paper argues out the correlation between weather and war in a unique and yet clear manner.

The author is of the opinion that women harbor a lot of knowledge on the viable adaptation efforts that should be listened to. The final part of this paper surveys into detail, the international debate on climate with an in-depth assessment of the explanations for the existing gender blindness in the weather debates as well as a summary of the progress on the issue of gender that was made in both Cancun and Copenhagen. This is done in order to provoke a general movement towards a global climate justice for the women.
