The problem of Climate Change is the major issue for countries who are in sustainable development in the 21st century.The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Changein which was formed by the World Meteorological Organization and the United Nations Environment Program in 1988 has carried out four evaluations since 1990.The fourth assessment which was published in April 2007 as the latest report noted the future impact of climate change is a major negative in human society.Since 1850,the overall global average temperature is on an upward trend and surface temperature has increased by 0.74℃in average.It seems that the global warming is obvious because of the increase of global average temperature,the melt of large-scale snow and ice,the rise of average sea-level.While global climate changes,the center of the world economy is changing quietly.Studies by economists show that,the Asia is sharing in increasingly important position of the world.Asia-Pacific region have actually led the world's economic life. With the rapid growth of demand for the Asian shipping market,the shipping services and related industries have shifted from west to east.Global climate change caused by climate change,is bound to have a profound impact on shipping.At the same time, the shipping of the development will also have a certain impact on global climate change.As a result,the Study of Global Climate Change on International Shipping Industry under the context of climate change and development of global economy is very necessary and urgent.The project aims to study the interaction between climate change and shipping to analyze the impact of the mechanism between them,and then Point out that their economic and social impact for the shipping and related businesses,as well as national development strategies to develop a macro strategy for the development of the shipping industry to provide a scientific reference.This article is to analyze the global climate change by the development process and the main form of expression,to understand the causes of global climate change and the future development trend,and to reveal the impact of climate change on human economic and social impact of possible future life.Firstly,this article will explain that the main performance of climate change is the global warming.And then collect data to reveal that human industrial activity is the main reason for global warming.Then indicate that natural systems and human life will be more and more affected with further increase in future climate by observational evidence.And lastly lead to climate change on the economic impact of international maritime research. This article is from the perspective of the shipping industry,and gradually analyze the impact of the global warming on international shipping in all aspects,Including collecting and distributing system,the port,the crew of psychological,trade routes, the capacity supply and demand changes in supply.In the end,this article is to provide development strategy of shipping to the country and business.
