Heavy rain made about 10% stronger by human-caused climate change triggered the landslides that killed more than 200 people in India's southern state of Kerala last month, a team of international scientists has concluded.The landslides on July 30 in the coastal state's Wayanad region were its worst disaster since 2018, when floods killed more than 400 people.

This is real concern.
Scientist have given their stamp to the root cause but we all know human are direct/indirect cause of major crisis in the world be it Natural(Calamity) or Artificial(War).

Root cause of all the major problems is overpopulation & that's why population control is the need of the hour.
"2019 Scientists’ Warning of a Climate Emergency, signed by more than 13,000 scientists from around the world, explicitly calls for “bold and drastic transformations” regarding both economic and population policies, including making family planning services available to all and achieving full gender equity.
Project Drawdown is a landmark, rolling study that evaluates practical and economically realistic solutions which can help control and reverse global warming. In 2022, it analysed 93 policy options, such as plant-based diets, wind farms and electric vehicles, and identified family planning and universal education as among the top 10 workable solutions to combat climate change available.
By helping to bend population growth down, Drawdown calculates that's this joint solution would reduce CO2 emissions by 68.9 gigatonnes by 2050 – more than onshore and offshore wind turbines combined."

population is wealth to a country if handled right
population can become knife on a doctors hand or become knife on thieves hand.. all depends on how we manage:)
SO DONT EVER TELL POPULATION IS BAD
those who say population is bad dont even know how economy works:( sad truth
Western model of consumption economy, use and throw culture, destruction of the planet in the name of development, military industrial complex...
Sadly I see no good future for the planet as long as humans are roaming around
Completely falsified assumption. Landslides has been happening since the beginning of earth.
The tectonic plates activity, create, destroy places. You can't say that humans did anything in this case. We don't have any research or evidence that to back it up till now.
