Garbage crisis

September 21, 2018

It is disturbing to witness piles of garbage along roads and streets of Karachi. The areas where garbage is not disposed of for days is surrounded with a revolting stench.

According to reports, around two million people die from the harmful effects of polluted air every year. If we plant a billion trees but don’t take notice of land pollution, our efforts will not lead to desired results. The government needs to address this serious issue urgently.
