Many Indian districts ‘hotspots’ of climate change
The HinduAbout three in four of India’s districts are hotspots of extreme climate events such as cyclones, floods, drought, heat and cold waves, according to a study by the Council on Energy, Environment and Water, a research agency. India saw 250 extreme climate events between 1970 and 2005, and since then 310 extreme weather events. The study also found a shift in the pattern of extreme climate events such as flood-prone areas becoming drought-prone and vice-versa in over 40% of districts. India is already the fifth most vulnerable country globally in terms of extreme climate events and it is all set to become the world’s flood capital.
