A new scientific analysis has confirmed what communities across Asia, including India, have been crying out for years: the catastrophic monsoon floods that devastated the region were made far worse by the man-made climate crisis. Warmer oceans and destabilised weather systems—driven by reckless emissions and corporate-backed extraction—have supercharged rainfall across Asia, turning what should have been seasonal monsoons into deadly disasters. Yet governments continue to prioritise profit over people, pushing anti-environment policies even as lives, livelihoods and ecosystems collapse under extreme weather.
For India, this is more than a warning—it is a lived reality. From Assam to Kerala, floods have become harsher, more frequent and devastating, while those in power look away, protecting the interests of industries that helped create this crisis. This study is not just data; it is evidence of a system failing its people.
