Background. Representing a complex multi-factor system, the climate determines the existence of a biogeocenosis and ecosystems on the planet. The influence of climate on all living organisms, directly or indirectly through the manifestation of various natural processes, makes it necessary to consider climate and climatic phenomena when planning and organizing any types of activities. Numerous studies in the field of climatology in integration with various natural science, humanitarian, socio-economic, geopolitical, information research reveal many problematic issues related to the influence of climatological processes and phenomena on all spheres of human activity. However, it should be noted that, despite the large number of such studies, the impact of climate on human security is reflected only in a small number of scientific publications, and mostly indirectly. However, it should be noted that, despite the large number of such studies, the impact of climate on human security is reflected only in a small number of scientific publications, and mostly indirectly. At the same time, a general understanding of the importance of studying climate change and its impact on the world's ecosystems requires a particular study of the impact of this global environmental problem on human security. Purpose. Find out how the population identifies its security with global climate change, as well as to identify possible areas for further work to improve the level of security of the population. Materials and methods. Theoretical analysis of scientific research on the problem field of the impact of climate change on human security; qualitative and quantitative analysis of questionnaires of 352 residents of the Sakhalin region collected during the survey, conducted mainly in a remote format, on online platforms, as well as by mailing to e-mail and in social networks. Results. The study showed the degree of attitude of the population of the Sakhalin region in the problem of climate change. However, the lack of awareness of environmental safety issues, the impact of climate on health and life, the insufficient level of development of a safety culture, shows the need for mass educational work, as well as the relevance of international and some private climatic scientific research.
