The world has to take climate change seriously before it goes out of control. Slowly and gradually, climate change is gripping the world with its disasters in the shape of heat waves, unusual heavy rain, forest fires and tsunamis (“World hits record heat in January 2025,” Feb.6, Gulf Today website).
The month of January always remains the coldest month of the winter season. But, it’s shocking as it was reported worldwide by the European Union scientists that the world has experienced the warmest January 2025 on record.
I think it’s time to take serious measures to counter global warming and save the world from its disasters for the sake of present and coming generations.
