Description
PAKISTAN Nowshera -- 03 Aug 2010 -- Flooded residents try to salvage their belongings in Nowshera, Pakistan, after devastating floods washed away thousands of homes, bridges and roads in the Indus Valley of Pakistan. So far, it is estimated some 12m people have been affected. While termed ?heavy monsoon rains? by many journalists, many scientists and news analysts think climate change and the melting of the high Himalayan glaciers at the source of the River Indus have caused the disaster -- Picture by Amjad Jama | Lightroom Photos | UN
