Initiatives for sustainable development could be hampered by climate change, especially in underdeveloped

nations. A significant body of research shows that developing economies are vulnerable to climate change because of their strong dependency on fossil fuels and industries susceptible to climate change, like tourism and agriculture. This study used farming household survey data to better understand how climate change impacts interact with socioeconomic developments and are seen at the local level. This study evaluated opinion components using data from a questionnaire survey conducted in 2022 (N = 64), and provided aspects that are similar to or dissimilar from those found in the pertinent literature. Binary logistic regression was utilized in the statistical analysis to predict whether climate change is a very serious issue for farm households or not. Study employed the questions about general air pollution concerns, increasing tourism, alternation in precipitation, increase in annual temperature, increase in the incidence of disease and insect pests as response variables. It has been concluded that rising number of tourists visiting the Ladakh valley, increase in the annual temperature and disease and insect pest incidence on crops had a significant impact on the farm households concern about climate change. It was observed that local communities today have a better understanding of climate change.
