Özet

PREFACE

Unfortunately, the world is in the midst of a profound change. The moment

we realize this signifes a time frame in which we may already be too late.With its

escalating impacts, this transformation will not only afect nature, living beings,

and systems but will also infuence the entire uture. Disaster management

adopts a comprehensive system that begins with planning or events beore they

occur, extending to the moment o the event and its atermath. When climate

change is examined within this systematic ramework, it becomes evident that i

intervention is not possible beore the event, mitigating the damage and keeping

losses under control during and ater the event will be extremely challenging.

However, the pre-disaster risk reduction phase demonstrates that by reducing

the eects o the disaster, emergency levels can be minimized beore the event

occurs.

This editorial work explores how climate change, occurring on a global

scale, is evaluated from the perspective o disaster management. Additionally,

it delves into secondary disasters caused by climate change and the methods

employed to combat them. As we continue to grapple with the long-term impacts

o global climate change, the topics discussed in this work will requently be the

subject o conversation.

In the creation o this work, experts in the eld and experienced scientists

in disaster management have contributed. I express gratitude to the authors

and the working team or their contributions to this work, and I hope it proves

benecial to readers and the academic community.
