IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON OTHER WORLD

Introduction: Climate change has become an undeniable reality, with its effects reverberating throughout the world. Beyond the obvious changes in weather patterns, rising sea levels, and extreme weather events, there are hidden consequences that often go unnoticed. These hidden impacts of climate change are not only affecting our environment but also jeopardizing our health, economies, and ecosystems. In this blog, we will explore some of the lesser-known effects of climate change and shed light on the urgent need for global action. Hidden Impact 1: Health Crisis As temperatures rise and weather patterns become more unpredictable, public health is increasingly at risk. Heatwaves, intensified by climate change, can lead to heat-related illnesses and fatalities. Moreover, changing climate conditions create favorable environments for the spread of infectious diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, and Lyme disease. The consequences of climate change on human health are often overshadowed

CONSTRUCTION OF DAMS IN PAKISTAN

INTRODUCTION  Dams are built for a variety of reasons, including flood control, irrigation, and hydroelectric power generation. With climate change and variable weather patterns, the construction of dams to store water for later use has become essential. The construction of dams has been a major problem in Pakistan for decades. No major dam has been built in Pakistan since 1984. Due to this Pakistan has always seen destruction after floods. And no way to save a large amount of water. But now a few years ago Pakistan is showing more concern and taking steps to build big dams. Now Pakistan is working on the construction of seven big dams. Which are: Kurram Tangi Dam  KPK  2016  Dasu Dam  KPK  2020  Mohmand Dam  KPK  2019  Kalam Dam  KPK   –  Othla Dam  KPK   –  Jabba Dam  KPK   –  Jalozai Dam  KPK   –  Dadocha Dam  Punjab   –  Nai Gaj Dam  Sindh   –  Darawat Dam  Sindh   –  Naulong Dam   Balochistan   –  Basha Dam  Gilgit-Baltistan  2019  list of under-construction dams in Pakistan KURRA

CLIMATE CHANGE'S IMPACT ON WATER RESOURCES

  INTRODUCTION   Pakistan is no stranger to natural disasters. Floods, droughts, and heat waves are a regular occurrence, and they often take a devastating toll on the country’s citizens.  Now, a new report has revealed that climate change is making these disasters even worse. The report, which was compiled by the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD), warns that climate change is increasing the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events in Pakistan. As a result, the country’s water crisis is only going to get worse.  This is a critical issue for Pakistan, as water shortages have already led to widespread protests and social unrest. In some areas, access to clean water is becoming increasingly difficult – and in some cases, it’s simply not available at all. Unless something is done to address the impact of climate change, things are only going to get worse.     INTRODUCTION TO THE WATER CRISIS IN PAKISTAN   Pakistan is one of the most water-stressed countries on Earth.
