Living in Asia and Africa will be liable to heat waves
The United Nations and the Red Cross are warning that Asia and Africa could become uninhabitable due to global warming. This information has emerged in a new report of the two organizations. According to the report on preparing for future heat waves, a total of 38 heat waves hit from 2010 to 2019. As a result, around 70,000 people died worldwide. News Al-Jazeera.
The report cited old data from the Red Cross and said that natural disasters are increasing at the rate of global climate change. For this, scientists are repeatedly urging to reduce the global warming. They say global warming must be kept within 1.5 degrees. If it is more than this, it will have a great impact on people, animals and ecosystems.
The UN Orad Cross says that if the temperature is not below 2 degrees, people's heat tolerance will be greatly reduced. As a result, a serious problem can arise. According to the report, the death rate due to excessive heat in the South Asian country of Bangladesh may increase by 20 percent at the rate the world is warming.
According to the report, wildfires on the coast of North Africa, the peninsular region of East Africa, and southern and southwestern Asia will exceed the 'limits of human physiological and social tolerance'. As a result, there will be massive suffering and loss of life.
This year's fires in countries like Somalia and Pakistan point to more severe, larger and larger heat-induced humanitarian disasters in the future.
UN human rights coordinator Martin Griffiths said that rich countries are spending a lot of money preparing to keep their people safe in the world due to climate change. But countries that don't have enough money are in dire straits.
