Abstract

Changes in solar irradiance may have affected global climate, the importance of the climate change issue stems from the impact of changes in climate on human and natural systems. The two most well-known consequences of climate change are an increase in global-mean temperature and a rise in sea level. The primary components of sea-level rise are thermal expansion and the melting of small glaciers. However, there are other changes in climate could be as important, or even so, than changes in the mean climate state. These include changes in precipitation and climate variability, particularly changes in the intensity and/or severity of extreme events such as droughts, floods, or tropical storms.
 Physics deals with the structure of matter and how the fundamental constituents of the universe interact. The impact of humans on the environment revolves around the need of physical science to understand how human beings change a natural system, an understanding of global warming and the associated climate change. Hence, physicists will approach numerous troubles from more than one direction. Physicists had to constantly keep attentive to changes, to visualize one factor going on in nature, to discover new phenomena and to document it in order that they will describe it later. Thus studying physics strengthens quantitative reasoning and problem solving skills. The environment is the natural world but with toxic chemicals, spacecraft, and nuclear bombs, humans seem to be moving further and further away from what could be called 'natural' every day. As physics strengthens quantitative reasoning and problem-solving skills, it should be dealt transdisciplinary with Law will surely helps in reducing human influence on global climate and render legal protection for sustenance of life on earth. Hence the paper concentrates on the importance of application of physical principles to environmental problems and the proactive role played by judiciary in different countries in protecting life on earth by adopting policies relating to climate change, enhancing ethical principles by setting regulations and standards for operating industries.
