ANTHROPOGENIC GLOBAL WARMING. ENERGY, ENVIRONMENTAL AND CLIMATE SECURITY

The article is devoted to the analysis of the evolution of the concept of security in the context of modern global warming. The features of three stages of this evolution from energy security to environmental one and further to climate security are considered. It is noted that these stages of evolution correspond to a certain "source base", namely, energy security - to the resources of "primary" bioenergy, environmental security - to fossil fuels, fissile materials and limited renewable energy sources (RES), and climate security - predominantly RES. The presence of a close connection between changes in the "source base" and technological structures - pre-industrial, industrial and modern information - is indicated. Data from the analysis of priorities and practices of energy, environmental and climate security are provided. The features of energy security are considered and ecological imbalance in the biosphere at this stage is indicated, caused by the depletion of energy resources and the growth of anthropogenic load on the environment, which began to exceed its adaptive capabilities. Environmental security is analyzed in the context of modern global warming. The emergence at this stage of the idea of ​​energy transition associated with the replacement of fossil energy resources with renewable energy sources is noted. The features of climate security, the content of which has replaced the agenda of environmental security, are considered. It is noted that the problems of climate security should primarily include issues of adaptation and mitigation of the climate, and secondly - geoengineering climate management. Certain attention is also paid to such an important feature of climate security as its anthropocentrism, which is associated with the anthropogenic nature of modern global warming and the need to solve climate management problems primarily from the standpoint of usefulness for human systems. Keywords: global warming, evolution of the concept of security, ecology, climate, energy supply.
