Region: India

India, like many other countries, is facing the impacts of global warming and climate change. The country is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change due to its geographic location and socio-economic conditions. Some of the major impacts of global warming in India include:

Heat Waves: India has been experiencing a rise in the number of heat waves in recent years, which has resulted in several deaths due to heat stroke and dehydration.

Changes in Monsoon Patterns: Climate change is causing changes in the monsoon patterns, leading to more frequent and intense floods and droughts.

Glacial Retreat: The Himalayan glaciers, which are a major source of water for rivers like the Ganga and Brahmaputra, are melting at an alarming rate due to global warming.

Sea Level Rise: India's vast coastline is highly vulnerable to sea-level rise, which could result in the flooding of coastal cities and the displacement of millions of people.

Agricultural Impacts: Climate change is affecting agriculture in India, leading to reduced crop yields, soil erosion, and loss of biodiversity.
