    #ClimateChange is here and its a #ClimateCrisis now

    We have all seen the horrific video from #India next door of an entire village being swept away in a #Flood. Same weather systems

  2. #Floods hammering #Pakistan as of last night.

    Disappointing how the western colonialist line "dont be alarmed, these things are usual in these parts" made it to this article as well.

    CLIMATE DISASTERS ARE NEVER "THE NORM"!

  7. Further north, in #Pakistan 's mountainous province of #GilgitBaltistan, a #heatwave the past week has cause #FlashFlood and #GLOF or a Glacial Lake Outburst Flow, a wall of water that floods down mountains once it's ice wall melts and breaks like a dam.

    GLOFs have become "common" in Northern Pakistan in the past decade, washing away infrastructure, towns and farms almost annually.

  8. Spoke too soon.

    " #LAHORE: Twelve people died and 27 others were injured while 14 houses collapsed due to heavy rains during the last 24 hours in various parts of the province."

    "The dead included five children, three women and four men while three persons died due to lightning in #Narowal and #Multan districts."

  9. "While the #Pakistan Meteorological Department said that #Karachi weather will return to โ€˜normalโ€™ from Sunday (today) with the sea breeze expected to resume..."

    "Also on Saturday, the Edhi Foundation reported to have received 142 bodies at its three morgues on Friday."

    The sea breeze did not return on Sunday, more people succumbed to the heat instead.

  10. A week onwards, people in #Karachi ( #Pakistan) continue to die of officially documented #heatstroke.

    "At 2:00pm, the heat index.. was 53ยฐC in the city when the actual temp.. was 40ยฐC.."

    This is unprecedented! And no matter what anyone says, its 'not the norm'!

    dawn.com/news/1842427/light-ra

    Documented in the above post but not this article, bodies continued to be discovered on streets across the city.

  11. "The discovery of bodies continued for a third consecutive day in #Karachi amidst an extreme hot weather, with 11 bodies...."

    This is a "tip-of-the-iceberg" effect, most heat-caused deaths will never hv been recognised or recorded as weather related, they will be "natural causes" (heart attacks, strokes, renal failure, etc)

  12. Rouvikonas bring the heat to those responsible for another climate death
    Those responsible have names and addresses; we do not expect any investigation; we do not trust the civil justice system.

  13. Massive search is underway for missing children swept away in suburban Philadelphia flash flood

    apnews.com/article/flash-flood

    Crews in suburban Philadelphia on Monday intensified the search for a missing 9-month-old boy and his 2-year-old sister, swept away after weekend rains swelled the banks of a creek while they were driving to a barbecue with their family.

  14. Typical "International Media" normalising #ClimateDeaths & destruction in the #GlobalSouth by #ClimateCrisis ravaging our homes

    My house flooded THRICE in a WEEK. My block had a gastroenteritis outbreak because of it. I had to take my Dad to the ER because I was too ill to treat him at home myself

    Before that? Flooded once two YEARS ago

    More than SIX years after the last one

    HUNDREDS are DEAD across #Pakistan #India, bt thats "TYPICAL"?

    FuckYOU #BBC!
