The New Reality?
Climate Change: Brutality in Action
Monsoon season in Pakistan is getting more and more intense, unpredictable and destructive with every passing year. The nation is yet to recover from the devastating effects of the 2022 Floods, and 2025 continues to haunt individuals around the country. Earlier this year, monsoon rains and flash floods claimed over 180 lives in the country, primarily in Punjab and KPK. The rains carried away with them homes, businesses and infrastructure, leaving behind a legacy of catastrophe and destruction.
