Climate Change

- JITENDRA CHOUBEY @New Delhi

A new study by the Pune-based Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM) underscored that rising cases of dengue diseases are directly linked to rising temperatures due to climate change.

Moreover, the study advocates for establishing an early warning system to potentially predict dengue outbreaks more than two months in advance.

The study set off the alarm that, in the absence of timely interventions, rising temperatures and fluctuating monsoon rainfall could increase dengue-related deaths by 13% by 2030 and 23-40% by 2050 in India.

Climate change has already been impacting the Indian monsoon, which is becoming more erratic and uneven. It has led to an increase in the number of dry spell days with high humidity, which is a conducive environment for mosquito breeding.
