Implications of climate change on Pakistan’s economy

 Speakers at a conference suggested the government devise climate change policies which can be practically implemented.

While they also emphasized the government to raise awareness on climate change and mitigate its negative impacts.

They were speaking in an online roundtable discussion on “Climate Change as Non-Traditional Security Challenge: Relevance for Pakistan”.

The event was jointly organized by Center for Global and Strategic Studies (CGSS), Islamabad and Hanns Seidel Foundation (HSF) Pakistan.

It is important for Pakistan to raise awareness on climate change and mitigate its negative impacts, said Dr Kudella, adding that climate change is both the rise of the average temperature of the Earth’s climate system and large-scale weather shifts.

“It is one of the most threatening situations for Pakistan”, he added.
