Paris: The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the world's largest organization that studies climate change, has said in a new report that climate change is now damaging the planet's sensitive systems. Yes, it cannot be cured.
The report states that more than 36 million people are directly affected by extreme weather events, such as torrential rains, droughts, heat waves and fires.
It should be noted that this is a thousands of page report titled 'Climate Change 2022: Impacts, Synchronization and Vulnerability'. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres was also present at the press conference on the publication of this important document, calling it an "atlas of human tragedy."
It should be noted that this is an assessment report issued by the IPCC after eight years and consists of 3675 pages but a summary of 35 pages has been written for the policy makers.
One of the thousands of authors of this report is Rachel Warren, a scientist at the University of East Anglia. She says the average temperature has risen by 1.5 degrees Celsius and an increase of 2 degrees Celsius would be fatal.
The report emphasizes that unpredictable weather conditions are also contributing to mental illness. According to the report, the poorest countries could be most affected, including East, West and Central Africa, South Asia and South America. Poor countries also have a 15 percent higher mortality rate due to extreme weather (rain, floods and droughts) than developed nations.
According to the report, more than half of the world's population lives in cities where heatwave, urban floods and storms cause severe damage to infrastructure and power systems. These changes could suspend the entire city, including the fog of our Punjab province.
According to the report, two species of animals have become extinct due to climate change and with the global average increase of one and a half degree centigrade, another 14% of living creatures will become extinct.
