This paper has discussed how the intense change of temperature is affecting
the water sources and is creating scarcity in Pakistan. Water scarcity leads to a
vulnerable situation in Pakistan, as people are deprived of clean water for drinking
and domestic purposes. Unfortunately they have to drink contaminated water which
causes serious chronic diseases and infections. This paper has mentioned statistics of
increasing temperature, shortage of water levels and the relationship exist between
them. Climate change directly impacts water supply, and as the temperature
increases, water starts evaporating and thus causing a shortage of water. The
economic condition of Pakistan is also mentioned in the paper, it is a developing
country; with no proper planning to control rapid climatic changes or to face the
water scarcity. It has also discussed the climatic changes occurring from the past
decade and how they are creating problems for people concerning the water. Water
