Food Waste and Loss.
@WWFPak
is working with different private sector companies, academia & GOs to reduce
#Food
waste & loss. 40% of food in
#Pakistan
is wasted i.e. 36 million tons/yr, leaving 43% of the country’s citizens to remain food insecure while 18% face a severe shortage
Please don't blame river and its water at all. We ourselves are responsible by encroaching river beds, floodplains and water ways. Don't go against the nature.
And we still complain about our losses. E-11 sector developed in the last 20 years and had encroached most of the nullahs/drainages. Issues lie with us guys.
Proper land use plans and their implementation is important for our sustainable cities.

Stern actions should have been taken against this shameful person. Heard that he has bn released against a fine of just PKR 100,000. What a shame & what an embarrassment. This is Bahawalpur & this guy named Malik Ameer Wadh is habitual illegal wildlife killer. Via Irfan Kamboh.
All dams in Pakistan filled to their maximum capacity - more water, more food, more energy. We need to conserve this water through other means as well such as Nature Based Solutions and by adopting integrated approaches as well

A herd of over 60 Himalayan Ibex was spotted on the way to Khunjerab National Park - shared by friend on whatsapp. It is such a blessing to see mountains with these wild ungulates.

This film was taken at the Uyuni salt lake in the Andes mountain range (Bolivia, 3,700 meters above the sea), a place where it is said that heaven meets earth. Most of the year the salt lake (which is the largest in the world) remains completely dry, but in the rainy season,
When you encroach floodplains, when you divert the flow of water, when you choke the natural pathways, when you destroy your catchment areas, when you develop concrete jungles and top of all poor urban water governance - make sure you will all face the situation like this

Today is World Wildlife Day!
As we celebrate the wildlife of Pakistan, let us not forget the astonishing decline in wildlife population, a 60% fall in just over 40 years, globally, a grim reminder & perhaps the ultimate indicator of the pressure humans exert on the planet.
