India, Chennai, 2021-08-10. An Indian woman carries clothes to wash in a waterbody inside a quarry in Chennai. A climate report released by the United Nation's (UN) Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), predicts that unless humans make immediate changes to limit methane emissions, carbon dioxides and other heat-trapping gases, the earth will continue to warm with devastating effects on human and animal life. India would face similar impacts in addition to the frequent occurrence of glacial lake bursts in the Himalayan region and inundation of low-lying coastal areas. For India, a increase in annual mean precipitation could be accompanied by more severe rainfall events over southern parts of the country in the next few decades.

Un rapport sur le climat publie par le Groupe d experts intergouvernemental sur l evolution du climat (GIEC) des Nations Unies (ONU) predit qu a moins que les humains n apportent des changements immediats pour limiter les emissions de methane, de dioxyde de carbone et d autres gaz piegeant la chaleur, la terre continuera de se rechauffer avec des effets devastateurs. sur la vie humaine et animale. L Inde serait confrontee a des impacts similaires en plus de l occurrence frequente d eclatements de lacs glaciaires dans la region himalayenne et d inondations des zones cotieres basses. Pour l Inde, une eventuelle augmentation des precipitations moyennes annuelles pourrait s accompagner d episodes de precipitations plus severes dans les regions meridionales du pays au cours des prochaines decennies.
