Pakistan is headed toward being uninhabitable due to persistent heatwaves.

Published

Pakistan has had continuous heatwaves since the end of May, with scorching temperatures rising 4-5 degrees Celsius above average in numerous areas.

Temperatures as high as 52 degrees Celsius have affected people’s daily lives in Southern Punjab and the interior of Sindh.

Crisis in the Environment

Scientists caution that there is a good chance that this pattern of high heat may continue and even worse in the future. The main factors that have been identified include the expanding population, coal-fired power plants, and emissions from traffic and industry. Heat waves are occurring more frequently and with greater intensity due to these variables.

Expert Views

The serious ramifications of the current course are emphasized by environmentalist Dr. Khalid Waleed. “Pakistan will face catastrophic consequences from a 1.5 to 2.5 degree Celsius temperature increase. Even with rising heat intensity, coal still accounts for a sizable portion of the power sector’s investment and thermal power share. In addition, the population is expanding, making the situation more challenging “, he says.

Dr. Shafqat Munir emphasizes the rising temperatures in support of these worries. “It used to be 48 degrees, but this year the temperature is close to 50. The scenario would get more riskier if Pakistan keeps emitting carbon at its present pace.”

Prospective Forecasts

It’s difficult to predict the precise temperature 10 years from now, but the consequences are worrying. Without major adjustments, environmental experts concur that the nation may experience average temperatures that rise further, worsening the already extreme heat waves.

Insist on Action

In order to slow down global warming, experts emphasize how urgent it is to reduce carbon emissions. It is essential to transform transportation, energy, and industry sectors to be more environmentally friendly. To avoid the catastrophic effects of unrestrained global warming on Pakistan’s climate, this change is imperative.
