Pakistan's water crisis worsens as climate change melts glaciers and disrupts rainfall patterns, threatening the country's future.
Pakistan is highly vulnerable to climate change, facing challenges like rapid population growth, rising temperatures, and more extreme weather events. The country heavily relies on the Indus River for water, which is at risk due to glacier melting and uncertain precipitation patterns. Climate models predict higher temperatures but are unsure about future rainfall. This uncertainty could severely impact Pakistan's water resources. It is crucial to understand and address these impacts to ensure sustainable management of freshwater resources in the face of climate change.
