On 50C #Heatwaves produced by #ClimateChange and turbocharged by one of #SouthAsia's worse #HeatIslandEffect, a direct result of the american car-centric #urbanPlanning ideology pushed throughout the world.

Mass #ClimateDeaths are just on the horizon for #Karachi and similar cities.

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.

"While the #Pakistan Meteorological Department said that #Karachi weather will return to ‘normal’ 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.

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

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

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

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

"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)

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.

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
