> Western languages)
>
> c. characteristics of the Chinese language during (and as a result
> of), the Cultural Revolution (esp. the temporalization of the Chinese
> language as a result of China's will to modernize and catch up with

> Dear H-Asia members,
>

>
>
> SUMMARY
>
> This essay examines Pakistan's most significant nontraditional security
> challenges, including climate change, increasing population and
> urbanization, food security, and water security.
>
> Main Findings
>
> - Climate change will negatively affect human activities and livelihoods
> in Pakistan through increasingly frequent extreme weather events and
> changes in temperature and precipitation. A rise in extreme weather has
> already led to an alarming increase in the number of people killed,
> injured, or made homeless.
>
> - Pakistan's large population and high growth rate adversely affect all
> aspects of society, the economy, and the environment. Population growth
> creates and exacerbates vulnerabilities by endangering basic civic
> amenities, leading to a lack of clean water and space for housing and
> ultimately burdening society.
>
> - Growth in agricultural productivity has broadly kept pace with
> accelerating demand. However, medium-term food security challenges will
> become far more daunting if immediate attention is not paid to managing
> water resources, both underground and in the Indus Basin river system.
>
> - Water security is the most serious challenge for Pakistan due to several
> factors, particularly the increasing pressure of population and
> urbanization, massive expansion of tube-well irrigation, reduced levels of
> precipitation caused by climate change, and the accelerated retreat of
> Himalayan glaciers.
>
> Policy Implications
>
> - Pakistan can mitigate the adverse effects of natural disasters through
> early warning systems, technological advances in building and
> infrastructure construction, improved sanitation systems, increased
> disaster preparedness, and an organized health sector response.
>
> - Expanding and enhancing the information and knowledge base on climate
> change, as well as mapping vulnerabilities, trends in internal migration,
> and the incidence of disease, can help create adaptive measures for
> reducing the effects of climate change.
>
> - The successful implementation of mechanisms to address nontraditional
> security issues will require that South Asian countries work together to
> adopt ecosystem-wide approaches that incorporate transboundary strategies.
