Hey there! Did you know that climate change is affecting countries all over the world? One of those countries is Pakistan, and their Minister for Climate Change and Environmental Coordination, Mr. Musadik Masood Malik, has a message for everyone: We need to work together to protect our planet! 🌎
Mr. Malik says that Pakistan is experiencing big problems because of climate change, like hotter temperatures, unusual weather, and melting glaciers. This is causing issues with their water supply, farming, and the overall health of the country.
In 2022, Pakistan had terrible floods that caused a lot of damage. Even though Pakistan produces less than 1% of the world’s greenhouse gases, it’s one of the countries most affected by climate change. That’s not fair, right?
Pakistan is trying hard to help the environment by using more renewable energy like solar and wind power, switching to electric cars, and protecting nature to help absorb carbon dioxide (that’s a gas that makes the Earth warmer). Their goal is to have 60% of their energy come from renewable sources by 2030!
But they can’t do it alone. Mr. Malik is asking richer countries to keep their promises to help with money and technology. It’s important for everyone to pitch in so we can make the planet a better place for all of us. 🌱
So, what can you do to help? You can learn more about caring for the environment, recycle, save energy, and tell others about why it’s important to fight climate change. Every little bit counts! 💚
