Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Pakistan floods: One third of country is under water – minister
Another evidence of global warming. An unprecedented monsoon season in South Asia. For Pakistan, it is going to be as deadly as the one in 2010 when over 2,000 people were killed by devastating floods. By the end of August, one in seven people, or over 33 million people, had been affected and at least 1,100 people had died. Nearly half of the cotton crop had been washed away and significant damage had been caused to farmlands and rice fields. And this record monsoon has been affecting neighboring countries like Bangladesh and India.
Indeed, global warming is already affecting many places around the world with extreme weather conditions, droughts, wildfires, and floods. The world is now experiencing water and food crises.
Read the article about another piece of evidence of global warming.
