Air pollution

Karachi is the fifth most populated city of the world. This city has its own set of problems – air pollution being a major one. Streets of Karachi are packed with vehicles with outdated engine. These vehicles release harmful and toxic gases and worsen the quality of the air.

The shocking reality is that neither the government nor the people seem to care about this issue. People must realise that irreversible effects of air pollution can cause serious health problems. The government must take adequate steps to deal with the issue.
