Environmental protection in Pakistan

Hi,

Environmental protection is a challenging issue for all the countries around the world. Would you say this issue is deemed of significance in Pakistan?

Is the country going green through initiatives like waste management and selective sorting programs, renewable energies, public transport, green awareness campaigns and so forth?

How do you personally commit to improve the environment in your daily life?

We would greatly appreciate if you could tell us more about the various local initiatives for sustainable development in Pakistan.

Many thanks in advance!

Pakistan is one of the developing country firstly the layer of terrorism and than natural disasters have caused huge damage to the environment. As you know development its self is destruction and it is in a sense that we have industries polluting air and water in its first contact and than the human and animals. one the other hand the people having low or no awareness about the adverse effects of deforestation and they are active in their role.
The turning point is this; that our government spend a lot of money in making strategies(For Go Green or other) than for the implementation but there is no team neither any supportive person for look after. means our government have planted millions of plants but no responsible person for watering these plants neither a single person to secure them from animals and human as well. **
