A year after the historic and devastating floods in Pakistan, caused by the monsoon season, the country is not recovering and thousands of people are still suffering from the consequences of the climate crisis.
At the time, the Pakistani government declared a “serious climate catastrophe” while confirming the death of more than 1,000 people, the displacement of thousands and calling for urgent international help.
This chapter in Pakistan is a clear example of the deep mark that the climate crisis leaves on the population, the arduous nature of the recovery and the urgency of measures to mitigate the impact of climate change, experts agree.
