摘要：Environmental Degradation over the years has gained significance as a non-traditional security threat and it can be regarded as an unprecedented challenge to the human security in Pakistan as well. This paper analyses the causes the Environmental degradation in Pakistan and also explores the impact of environmental degradation on the various dimensions of the human security. The study incorporates the secondary data in the form of reports published by the World Bank, United Nations Environment Programme, Ministry of Finance & Ministry of Climate Change Pakistan and also the newspapers and online resources. The qualitative methodology has been used to analyze the data obtained through the secondary sources. The paper attempts to establish a linkage between the two existing concepts i.e. environment and human security by testing the hypothesis that environmental degradation is a new and unprecedented threat to the human security in Pakistan which consequently paves the way for policy oriented research in the field of sustainable development.
