What’s going into your lungs, #Lahore? An installation has been set up in a University in the city (i.e. lots of green space, away from traffic, construction, etc). One side has a working fan inside to depict physical breathing inside our bodies. #SaansLenayDo 1st image (Nov 6th) 2nd image (Nov 10th)

The science says no. Lahore's new 'Anti-Smog Guns' look like action, but are they a solution or just expensive 'smog theatre'? @abido new @dawn_com article, we examine the evidence. (Spoiler: it's not good).

Civil society will not let them “develop” the Margallah Hills National Park and adversely affect the fragile ecology. We must fight to preserve park for future generations to enjoy nature & to save the wildlife… we want ecosystem restoration & not ecosystem destruction!

This week, the federal government dissolved the Islamabad Wildlife Management Board (IWMB) and reconstituted it, replacing independent experts with bureaucrats. The IWMB is an autonomous body mandated to protect and conserve the Margalla Hills National Park. Why is the government interested in taking over the IWMB? The Supreme Court's judgment regarding the Monal Restaurant may offer some clues: Thread.🧵

Dawn’s launched the first mass media campaign in Pakistan covering the climate crisis, environmental pollution and building resilience. Looking forward to how broadly the messaging can be taken and affect public discourse.

@dawarhbutt has been emphasising that city-wide shutdowns need to be imposed in @LahoreSmog, Gujranwala & Multan for upto 3-days. The cycle of emissions and pollutant buildup needs to be stopped to bring immediate relief.

Smog in Pakistan - requires radical actions to limit fossil fuel burning machines (factories, cars etc), with countries like China demonstrating it is possible. There are many talented people in our county who could advise and implement successful strategies.

My 3-year-old grandniece, Amal, has filed a historic petition in Lahore High Court thu her parents, both lawyers, to uphold the constitutional right to a clean environment. Case highlights lack of emissions testing, EPA enforcement, public awareness of pollution. #smogfreepunjab

This letter from @PakAirQuality to the Prime Minster highlights quite well what are the actions needed to be taken immediately and over long term Only a full understanding of why smog appears, air pollution sources and measures required to counter will help improve air quality
