Environmental experts have warned that Pakistan will face increasingly severe climate impacts by 2050, including more frequent floods, worsening droughts, and serious effects on public health and food quality. American climate specialists noted that Pakistan is among the region’s most vulnerable countries, already suffering massive losses—from June to September 2025 floods alone, the economy endured damages exceeding Rs. 822 billion. Dr. Irum Sattar stated that climate change will intensify water crises and disrupt daily life. Dr. Adil Najam added that climate change “won’t listen to speeches” and will impact everyone. Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb emphasized that Pakistan must confront population growth and climate challenges together, warning that failure to do so will create severe economic and social strains, especially with rising poverty and widespread malnutrition among children.
