Rafi-ul-Haq

Rafi-ul-Haq is a Karachi-based ecologist who has been vocal about the increasing frequency of climate-induced disasters in Pakistan, emphasizing that floods are becoming routine shocks that communities must prepare for each monsoon season. He advocates for a shift in focus from merely reducing emissions to prioritizing adaptation strategies that can mitigate the impacts of these disasters, which are exacerbated by unplanned urbanization and environmental degradation.
