A Christian Aid report, 'Counting the Cost 2025,' identifies the India-Pakistan monsoon floods as the fifth costliest climate disaster of 2025, with an estimated economic impact of $5.6 billion. The floods, which occurred from June to September, caused over 1,860 deaths and affected millions, particularly in Pakistan. Scientists link such extreme monsoon events to human-driven climate change, noting that monsoon rainfall increases with global warming. The report highlights Asia's vulnerability, with four of the ten most expensive climate disasters occurring there.
