Abstract
paper aims to discuss the hot burning issue that we
all are facing right now called “Climate Change” and
more specifically in the context of Pakistan. Climate
change or the issue of climate change has existed since
decades but unfortunately, it is highlighted recently
by the efforts of some states or people individually or
collectively. Pakistan has the lowest contribution of
carbon emission but on the ranking of among the top
ten countries that are affected severely. Pakistan’s made
policies and doing work on that but since the last decades,
our country is facing very unprecedented weather patterns
causing uncontrollable damage in the form of deaths
especially. The dangerous heat waves we faced in 2015
and then in 2018, and recently the heavy rainfalls also
became the reason for people’s deaths. Also, the damage
of infrastructure and lack of enough equipment and
technologies made this catastrophic. Although Pakistan
is doing its efforts towards tackling climate change there
is a need to do more. With this, international communities
or the developed world’s help and assistance must be
required.
