Climate change is a serious threat to our planet. Rising temperatures, erratic rainfall and extreme weather conditions have created havoc for many nations. The rate of global warming is higher than it has ever been. Variations in temperature are altering weather patterns and upsetting the natural balance of the ecosystem. Such climatic changes have adverse effect on the food security as well. Thus the current study explores the effects of climate change on food security. The results are based on the perspectives of different researchers. The effects were studied under food availability, food accessibility and food utilization in the face of climate change. Climate change adversely affects all the dimensions of food security. The current situation calls for a paradigm change regarding food systems and agriculture.
