Let's look at the severe problems we will face if we don't act urgently on climate change (Image: News18 Creative)

A research by NASA showed that intensity of extreme drought and rainfall has sharply increased in past 20 years (Image: News18 Creative)

2015 to 2021 were the warmest seven years seen (Image: News18 Creative)

The world's temperature has risen by about 1.2 C which plays important role in the occurrence of severe floods (Image: News18 Creative)

Studies show 1 degree rise in temperature is equivalent to 7 percent rise in amount of water in atmosphere (Image: News18 Creative)

Climate change causes slower jet streams leading to prolonged and severe bouts of rainfall (Image: News18 Creative)

There is a strong link between flooding and droughts (Image: News18 Creative)

In 2022, 98 percent of displacement in the world were due to weather-related hazards (Image: News18 Creative)

Weather-related issues like droughts, storms, floods, wildfire and landslides add upto 31845000 events (Image: News18 Creative)

Climate change has caused an increase in extreme heat and extreme rain (Image: News18 Creative)

In future, coastal flooding will increase due to melting of glaciers (Image: News18 Creative)

Flash floods occur when there are intense precipitation events such as heavy snowfall and rains (Image: News18 Creative)

In future, the timing of these floods will get shorter but their magnitude or intensity will increase (Image: News18 Creative)

Rainfall does not always result in flooding but definitely increases the probability of such events and this new normal will only evolve and escalate in future (Image: News18 Creative)
