Majority of Pakistanis feel summer gets hotter each year: poll

In the poll results, 74% people said that heat has increased this year.

A majority of Pakistanis think that this year is hotter than the last year, unearthed a Gilani Research Foundation survey carried out by Gallup Pakistan.

A sample of men and women from across the country were asked the following question:
Do you think the heat has increased, decreased or is still the same compared to last year?

In the poll results, 74% people said that heat has increased this year, making this summer hotter than last year's. Nineteen per cent said that there was no difference in the heat and only 9% people said that the heat, this year, has decreased.


At the same time, Gallup noted that each time the survey is conducted, a majority of people state that the current year is hotter than the preceding.

The survey was conducted to a sample size of 2696 men and women belonging to urban and rural areas from all four provinces of Pakistan.

Error margin is estimated to be approximately ± 2-3 per cent at 95 per cent confidence level.
