India News Live Updates: Heatwaves to be more devastating than floods in future; economic growth to be impacted more, say experts

As heatwaves get more intense and cover larger parts of the country, their negative impact on India’s economic growth is likely to be more than floods and other extreme weather events, say climate experts. This alarming prediction comes as a wake-up call for policymakers and citizens alike, urging them to take proactive measures to mitigate the effects of heatwaves on the economy.

The experts point out that heatwaves not only lead to physical discomfort and health risks but also have far-reaching consequences on various sectors of the economy. Agriculture, infrastructure, and productivity are all vulnerable to the adverse effects of prolonged heatwaves, which can disrupt supply chains, increase costs, and reduce overall output.

In light of these findings, it is essential for the government to prioritize climate resilience and adaptation strategies to safeguard the economy from the growing threat of heatwaves. Investments in sustainable infrastructure, renewable energy, and water management are crucial to building a more resilient economy that can withstand the challenges posed by extreme weather events.

As the country grapples with the dual challenges of economic growth and climate change, it is imperative for all stakeholders to come together and work towards a sustainable future. By taking proactive steps to address the impacts of heatwaves, India can ensure a more secure and prosperous future for generations to come.
