However, it is unrealistic to expect the developed countries would sacrifice their national interests to save those countries hit by climate change out of sympathy in this mind-one’s-own-business international system. This approach studying the interface between global warming and human rights is a wise one to fight for the rights of those small-island countries. I hope it would succeed.
