Pakistan Floods: Floods caused by Pakistan's mistakes, wrong to blame global warming; claim in the report


Posted on 16th Sep 2022 02:14 pm by rohit kumar

Global warming was believed to be responsible for the devastating floods in Pakistan, but scientific analysis has refuted this. The report reveals that while climate change has increased rainfall in two provinces of Pakistan by up to 50 percent, global warming is not the biggest cause of the country's devastating floods, which killed more than 1,500 people. Death has happened.

 

Climate change is not responsible

 

Senior author Frederick Otto, a climate scientist at Imperial College of London, said in his study, 'At one-third of the country was submerged in water due to severe floods in Pakistan, climate change cannot be attributed entirely to this. Is.' He said there are many elements to this humanitarian crisis, some meteorological, some economic, some social, some historical, and construction-oriented.

 

Pakistan's fault caused floods

 

"Without climate change, there would have been catastrophic high rainfall, but it is worse because of climate change, and small changes make a lot of sense, especially in this highly vulnerable region," Otto said. He added that other human factors that harmed people and water were not enough to control. He too had a great influence. Ayesha Siddiqui, a member of the study team from the University of Cambridge, said, 'The disaster was the result of many years of weakness.'

The team visited two provinces over five days and observed a 50% increase in rainfall intensity due to climate change. He also observed the entire Indus region for two months and saw an increase of up to 30% in rainfall there. "Pakistan has not contributed much to global climate change, but it certainly has to deal with the dire consequences of climate change," said Jonathan Overpeck, environmental dean at the University of Michigan.
