QUETTA, Oct 09 (APP):Balochistan Governor Jaffar Khan Mandokhel on Thursday said that making Pakistan a green oasis in the region is the top priority of the incumbent government.
He expressed these views while talking to Chief Minister’s Adviser on Environment Naseem-ur-Rehman Mulakhel at Governor House Quetta.
The Governor said that although global warming is a major global issue that requires collective responsibility, we must play our full part in reducing its effects.
He said that we recognize that global warming is actually a global warning as well, climate change actually makes us realize the need for urgent action individually and collectively.
Jaffar Khan Mandokhel said that continuously rising temperatures, melting glaciers and extreme weather events are threatening our existence.
He said that by adopting sustainable practices, increasing forests, and promoting eco-friendly technologies, we could reduce our carbon footprint and create a healthy environment.
The Governor said that it is our moral responsibility to protect the planet for future generations to ensure a habitable world where overall evolution and survival could be protected.
Later, Jaffar Khan Mandokhel and Adviser to the Chief Minister Naseem-ur-Rehman planted a tree in front of the Commissioner’s Office in Quetta city under the Green Quetta Dream Tree Plantation Campaign and assured Bayazid Kharoti of their full support to turn the dream of making Quetta city a green city into a reality.
They said that the religion of Islam has declared tree planting as a continuous charity fourteen hundred years ago. For the sake of Green and Clean Pakistan, national production could be increased by planting more trees in the province.
