South Asia calls for climate solidarity
Leaders from South Asian countries are asking for everyone to work together to fight climate change.
They say the world is getting too hot and it's causing big problems like floods and droughts.
These problems could hurt the economy and people's lives.
The leaders want South Asian countries to team up and share their resources and knowledge to solve these issues together.
They think this is the best way to protect their homes and cultures from the changing climate.
The world has exceeded the 1.5°C temperature threshold, urgent action is needed.
South Asian parliamentarians propose regional climate multilateralism to pool resources.
By 2050, South Asia could face nearly 1.8% annual GDP loss due to climate impacts.
Climate impacts include extreme heat, sea-level rise, floods, and droughts.
Interconnected ecosystems in South Asia make collective action uniquely effective.
