Abstract:

Climate change has natural and anthropological reasons. Especially with the industrial revolution, the negative impact of human activities on the climate system has increased and climate change has been included in the agenda of the international community as one of the most important problems of the 21st century. Climate change is the subject of many areas of international law, from human rights (such as life, health, access to clean food and water, housing rights) to migration and security policies, from the sovereign rights of states to the change of country borders. Although it is not often mentioned, climate change also has an impact on cultural and natural heritage. Extremely hot weather, sudden torrential rains, strong winds, floods and all other sudden events due to climate change negatively affect cultural and natural heritages, cause erosion and darkening, and put these assets in danger of extinction. The paper will seek an answer to the question of whether there is a link between climate change law and legal instruments in the fields of cultural and natural heritage conservation law. Opinions, reports and solution suggestions regarding this issue will be conveyed.
