New Challenges to Human Adaptation and Social Change Humans are generally adaptive to changes in the environment. If people perceive relevant changes in the environment they are in, they readily adapt their behaviour to meet these new challenges for their own benefit. Changes are inevitable.

Image: https://bitly/3dSFTPa Global Warming and Climate Change Many researchers on global warming and climate change focus mostly on what it will bring to the future. Climate change serves as a new challenge to humans today. The changing climatic conditions that we experience tell us that there is an existing environmental problem that needs to be addressed immediately so that it will not give too much negative impact to human beings in the future. Everyone must do something and act on global warming and climate change to ensure the survival of human species. Today, different programs are being implemented worldwide to prevent further global warming and avoid climate change. Despite of this, its effect will definitely last many years from now. Therefore, adaptation to the resulting changes in climate change is necessary. The goal of adaptation to climate change is to increase the ability of our environmental, social, and economic system to cope with the problem,Transnational Migration and Overseas Filipino Workers Aside from human adaptation to changes in environment, people on earth are also facing adaptation challenges borne by the need for mobility; people are changing residences rapidly. Migration is defined as the process of geographic mobility, or the change of residence of a person from one community to another with the intention of settling temporarily or permanently. There are three types of migration — international migration is the permanent transfer trom one country to another. A change of residence within a country is called internal migration. Circular migration is a temporary movement of a person. Transnational migrants are those persons who having migrated from one nation-state to another, live their lives across borders, participating simultaneously in social relations that embed them in more than one nation-state. Overseas Filipino Worker is a person of Filipino origin who lives and works outside of the Philippines. This term applies to Filipinos who are abroad indefinitely as citizens or as permanent residents of a different country and to those Filipino citizens who are abroad for a limited, definite period as workers or as students. They are called bagong bayani ng bayan Responding to Social, Political, and Cultural Change Inclusive citizenship is a governing policy focused at giving all citizens a strong sense that they are members of the overall society.
