In this edition, we take a closer look at climate change in Asia and its impact on extreme weather events. Whether it be scorching heatwaves in Pakistan or devastating floods in Bangladesh, the likelihood of these events occurring is increasing along with global temperatures.
Dr. Friederike Otto is a senior lecturer in climate science at the Grantham Institute, Imperial College London. She is also one of the co-leads of World Weather Attribution, an international effort to analyse whether climate change has had an effect on extreme weather events. She shares her expertise on these topics with us.
