The Impact of Climate Change and Floods in Pakistan: Challenges and Way Forward

Abstract

The study delivers a deep analysis to scrutinise essential notions regarding causes, impacts, and challenges of climate change. Pakistan is considered one of the top five countries vulnerable to climate-related problems. Climate change has become one of the major reasons worldwide. The worse metrological conditions include various natural disasters such as abrupt increases in temperature, deteriorating precipitation patterns, and rapid glacier melting. One of the greatest dilemmas is that climate-induced floods have escalated in regularity and intensity, paving the way for massive complications to the social, governmental, and economic systems of Pakistan. Frequent torrents led to loss of human lives and grievous harm to infrastructure. The qualitative research is used to conduct this research. In conclusion, floods are unrestrained, but their effects can be overcome through resilient planning and strategies, good infrastructure, and reforms. The government of Pakistan must associate national advancement with meteorological dimensions and mitigate the impact of climate change.
