Drought, floods and climate change The reality of climate change is now widely acknowledged. The weather is getting hotter, the weather is becoming more extreme and floods, drought and natural disasters are increasing. All these changes disproportionately affect poor communities, putting their lives and livelihoods at risk. What is climate change? It is a change in the natural climate of the earth, which currently means that the earth is getting hotter. The earth's temperature needs to be kept constant for life to exist but over the years this natural balance has been affected.

  The title of this article may be tempting fate. The British counter-terrorist services have reported that the financial trail leading to the 7 July 2005 attacks on London included direct or indirect links to eight unspecified charities. A single major terrorist outrage anywhere in the world, clearly funded through abuse of an established Muslim charity, would decisively blacken the reputation of the whole sector. However, from the evidence available at the time of writing, one of the repercussions of 9/11 has been hyper scrutinization of Islamic charities by the United States government that uncomfortably recalls the McCarthy period.
