Countering Climate Change and Emergency Preparedness: A Review of Pakistan National Climate Change Policy

    Climate Change is said to have posed itself as an existential threat to life on the planet Earth. It has been reported that during the last 200 years, the impact of human activity has become so immense that now credible scientific research and sources are consternating the conscience of humanity at a rigorous rate to call for joint platforms for action irrespective of regions and geolocations. Pakistan is pigeonholed among the top ten countries that are surmised to be affected if appropriate measures are failed or delayed on behalf of the government. The aim of the paper is to review the emergency preparedness of the Government's existing public policy on climate change. Among other sub- aims, authors were inclined to hash out the policy covers provided to improving institutional capacity regarding any likely emergencies as well as possible lags that may run devastative in failing to resist any potential natural calamity.
