Шаблон:Infobox heat event In 2023, Pakistan experienced an intense heat wave that lasted from March to June. The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) had warned of higher than usual temperatures during the summer season on 13 March 2023.[1]

Background

Climate change was cited as a contributing factor to the heat wave, with developing countries like Pakistan being particularly vulnerable to extreme weather events and abnormal climatic phenomena. The atmospheric analysis predicted similar conditions for the summer of 2023.[2]

Response

Amnesty International

Amnesty International called for international action to save Pakistan from severe heatwaves, stating that the country is at the forefront of the climate crisis. In their report, released on World Environment Day, they highlighted the vulnerability of Pakistanis to heatwaves due to a lack of means to protect themselves from high temperatures.[3]

Amnesty International urged the government to develop plans to protect millions of people from the health impacts of severe heat. The report noted that over 40 million Pakistanis live without electricity and many others experience erratic power supplies due to lengthy outages.[3]
