Climate change is leading to environmental crises and human calamity. In September this year, Pakistan was hit with extreme flooding due to rapidly melting glaciers. With 95,000 square meters of land submerged under water, and 33 million directly affected, the country is literally, and not only metaphorically ‘in deep waters’. The rescue and rehabilitation work post-floods is a mammoth task. In this podcast bring together grass roots civil society activists from the areas, most affected by the floods, to tell us about the impact of the floods and the challenges on the ground. Please join in to understand the impact of climate change related crisis and how they affect people’s lives.
