La montée des tensions entre le Pakistan et l’Inde rappelle brutalement que le changement climatique n’est plus un phénomène lointain - il agit désormais comme un multiplicateur d’instabilité géopolitique. À mesure que la crise climatique s’accélère, sa capacité à approfondir les rivalités existantes, à fragiliser des accords précaires et à enflammer des différends de longue date s’accroît également.

The escalating tensions between Pakistan and India serve as a stark reminder that climate change is no longer a distant — it is now a force multiplier for geopolitical instability. As the climate crisis accelerates, so too does its capacity to deepen existing rivalries, strain fragile agreements, and inflame long-standing disputes. In South Asia, the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) has long been a rare success story of transboundary cooperation between two nuclear-armed neighbours. However, as both climate pressures and political tensions mount, this once-resilient agreement is beginning to show signs of severe strain. The looming question is no longer just about water rights — it’s about whether climate change could be the catalyst for the world’s first true climate war.
