As summer approaches, recent studies warning that the season is becoming longer and more intense should concern us all. Rising temperatures are no longer just an inconvenience; they are a serious threat to public health and safety. People must take precautionary measures to cope with the extreme heat, including staying hydrated, avoiding unnecessary outdoor activities during peak hours, and checking on the elderly and vulnerable.Climate change has made life increasingly difficult. Scorching heat waves, devastating forest fires, and sudden heavy rains are disrupting daily life and damaging homes, crops, and infrastructure. These extreme weather events are clear reminders that the climate crisis is not a distant problem but a present reality.It is the need of the hour for nations to come together and take meaningful action against climate change. Only through collective responsibility and sustainable practices can we hope to protect our planet and ensure a safer future for generations to come.Usman Haddi,By email
