Temperatures in India, like the rest of the world, have been rising due to Climate Change.
India is ranked 4th among the list of countries most affected by climate change in 2015.
This is the 3rd straight year of severe heatwaves in India and the 6th in the last 10 years (see table below).
Temp. rises are also causing Himalayan glaciers to retreat, threatening the flow rate of major rivers.
