Global Heatwaves & Extreme Weather: Climate Crisis Intensifies 🌍🔥

The world is sweating through a climate nightmare 🌡️. From India’s 49°C heatwave to deadly floods in Brazil and record-breaking wildfires in Canada, extreme weather is rewriting the rules of survival. Last week, turbulence on a Singapore Airlines flight—linked to severe storms—left one dead and dozens injured, spotlighting how climate chaos is now disrupting even the skies ✈️.

Why Is This Happening?

Experts point to a perfect storm: rising greenhouse gases, deforestation, and El Niño’s amplifying effects. Ma Jun, director of China’s Institute of Public & Environmental Affairs, warns:

\"What we’re seeing isn’t a fluke—it’s the climate system screaming for help.\"

Climate Change: The Main Culprit?

Prasoon Singh of India’s Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) breaks it down:

\"Global temperatures have risen 1.2°C since pre-industrial times. This small number is fueling mega-disasters.\"
Studies show heatwaves are now 35 times more likely due to human-driven warming 🔥.

What’s Next? 🔮

If emissions aren’t slashed, experts predict 4°C warming by 2100, bringing:

  • Year-round droughts in tropical regions
  • Coastal cities underwater by 2050
  • Mass species extinction

But Singh offers hope:

\"Renewable energy adoption and smarter policies can still rewrite this script.\"
