Climate change has been a global issue for a long time, however only now people are really starting to take it seriously. I am a Pakistani citizen and living in Islamabad. I have observed many changes within Pakistan and Islamabad. Within the last few years the quality of life and air in Pakistan has gone down a lot, i've seen a lot more people polluting and littering everywhere which has caused the quality of life to go down. Islamabad is ranked as one of the most beautiful capitals in the world and this mostly due to the beautiful greenery in Islamabad. However, the government has started to cut down most of these trees to build space for skyscrapers and other buildings which will eventually lead to other emissions. In 2018, Pakistan was ranked as the second most polluted country in the world and in 2021, Pakistan was ranked as the third most polluted country, I demand that there must be strict rules that are implemented by the government stop pollution and deforestation as we really need to do something now. We don’t have time.
