29th Ambassadorship Title: [September thematic report] Extreme weather Month 1, Report 1 Unexpected, uncommon, severe, or out-of-season weather as well as weather at the extremes of the historical distribution are examples of extreme weather or extreme climate occurrences. Extreme events are frequently characterized as occurring in the unnatural and unobserved occurrences based on a location's historical meteorological data. The three main categories of extreme weather are tropical cyclones, heat waves, and cold waves. Increased economic expenses, human fatalities, droughts, floods, landslides, and ecosystem changes are all results of extreme weather occurrences. Widespread changes in weather patterns are linked to an increase in the global average temperature. Human-induced climate change is likely to increase the frequency or intensity of extreme weather events including heat waves and big storms. The changes in temperature, precipitation, storms, floods, and droughts that have been observed are the main topics of extreme weather. Long-term climatic changes have the potential to destabilize many facets of society, either directly or indirectly. For instance, higher average temperatures could affect the spread of diseases like Lyme disease and raise air conditioning expenditures, but they might also make it easier to cultivate particular crops. The hazard from more extreme weather changes extends to society. Increased disease and fatalities from high heat events, particularly among vulnerable populations, as well as crop damage, can result from more frequent and powerful heat waves. Intense storms can damage property, result in fatalities and population displacement, and temporarily interrupt vital services including transportation, telecommunications, energy, and water supplies. However, greater precipitation can replenish water supplies and help crops. So, extreme weather is as a result of climate change. We must act on time to get rid of it.

Hi, ALOK DHAKAL!
This is your mentor, Yoon.
You did well in defining what extreme weather is and examples of extreme climates. Your report would be even better if you were able to state the causes of climate change.
Nice job on writing the thematic report!
I am looking forward to reading your following report!

Hello, this is your mentor Minkyung.
Thank you for explaining the causes of extreme weather. As you mentioned, extreme weather is due to climatic change, mainly caused by human actions. If you could include some more information such as statistics from reliable sources in your report, it would be much better.
For the record, please include the reference of the picture you included in your report!
Great job writing the report, and keep up the work :)
