Voice of climate-by Naseem Sheikh

The climate of a region or country is known through the typical weather over a protracted amount of time. If a vicinity has a lot of dry days throughout the year than wet days, it'd be delineate as a dry climate; an area that has additional cold days than hot days would build it far-famed to own a chilly climate. Pakistan has four seasons: a cool, dry winter from December through February; a hot, dry spring from March through May; the summer season, or southwest monsoon amount, from June through September; and also the withdrawing monsoon amount of October and November. The weather extremes in Islamic Republic of Pakistan embody high and low temperatures, heaviest precipitation and flooding. the best temperature ever recorded in Islamic Republic of Pakistan is fifty three.5 °C(128.3 °F) that was recorded in Mohenjo-daro, Sindh on twenty six might 2010. Disaster state global climate change is probably going to increase climate-related natural disasters with the ...

Water may be a immense issue and clearly deserves monumental attention. Not solely is there a risk of decline in water provides however there’s additionally a probable increase in demand. Like all resources, we've to manage offer and demand. meaning protective and managing water sources, managing demand and creating gains in potency. In Islamic Republic of Pakistan there's a larger decision to make massive dams to deal with water inadequacy and generate electricity. The matter with dams used for power generation is that in most cases they just displace water inadequacy from one place to a different. As a result of water inadequacy is such a vital issue, any construction should be preceded by a comprehensive impact assessment. additionally, Islamic Republic of Pakistan also can inspect alternative solutions – like star and wind. Pakistan’s across the country Determined Contribution (NDC) document submitted to UNFCCC, as a part o...

The environmental field has experienced a major transition in the past 20 years. Climatic changes are actually happening and Earth is heating up, the glaciers melting and water is being consumed by the growing population. The changing climate leads to changes in the frequency and timing of extreme weather and climate events, and can result in unprecedented extreme weather and climate events.

Carbon is one of the most abundant chemical elements on Earth. It is universally abundant and essential component present in atmosphere, ocean and  human body. It is also part of carbon mono oxide and  carbon dioxide (a gas that comes from both natural and anthropogenic sources). Excess amounts of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere is connected to climate change.It must be absorbed other wise it becomes a great risk for environment. Forests and other terrestrial plants are good carbon absorbers but aquatic plants are greater and more efficient carbon sequesters than these terretrial sources. Carbon sequestered by way of aquatic plant, coastal sediments and coastal ecosystems such as mangrove forests, sea grass meadows or inter tidal salt marshes is called blue carbon. These blue sequester components protect people from coastal erosion, storms and flooding; also making them valuable for climate change adaptation and provide nursery grounds for fish...
