I notice things. I think about them. Sometimes I tweet.

@sabaawbega @eversmann_ Tallow may be preferable to some fats but "healthier than seed oils" doesn't make a dish healthy. It's still saturated fat and WHO recommends replacing it with unsaturated fat. You may appreciate a food for its cultural significance without pretending it's nutritionally ideal.

[Asma @AasmaaHaq]

Climate is much bigger story than that: energy, cities, economics, inequality, disasters, human security...They're so blending into each other, put 10 climate orgs logos next to each other nd they all look remarkably alike. Maybe visual language could b a little more imaginative.

[Asma @AasmaaHaq]

Why has colour Green become default visual language for #climate work in Pak when climate itself is so much broader than nature?
Almost every climate/environment org in 🇵🇰 seems to have settled on boring green for branding. Working on climate doesn't mean ur logo has to be green+

@StockieNewbie Blame who, PSX?

[Asma @AasmaaHaq]

Very dramatic indeed. Does he know his party is officially running the country?

@eversmann_ Most local food is actually oil, meat, hype and nostalgia keeping it alive. Little or no experiment with herbs or fermentation, just overwhelming use of fat doing the job for flavour.

Nepal's tragedy is worth watching and a useful warning for Pakistan. Renewable/clean doesn't automatically mean climate resilient infrastructure. As we aim to expand capacity, hope we are considering the economic risks of future climate and geological shocks.

[Dawn.com @dawn_com]

More than 90pc of Nepal’s electricity comes from hydropower, but extensive damage to its river projects has prompted questions about its energy security as climate and geological risks intensify.

Isn't it an ambitious amount of communication for one biscuit pack? So much messaging about friendship. From a branding perspective, the packaging almost feel like competing with the product inside, and winning.
Is this what they call structural growth in Cocomo economics?

[Asma @AasmaaHaq]

@StockieNewbie No other country is Pakistan, and Pakistan is no other country. Our interests, vulnerabilities and mess are our own. Foreign policy isn't a competition to copy what someone else did. It's about doing what serves your interests in the circumstances you're actually in.

[Asma @AasmaaHaq]

Simple, smart, low cost. And Trump clearly enjoys it. There's nothing wrong with a bit of strategic flattery. Countries have national interests to pursue, and that's how a middle income country can extract opportunities.

A good mute, block, and Not interested in post spree is underrated digital hygiene. Much better space now.

[Asma @AasmaaHaq]

@iAliQ_ Other than that, we can be suspicious of a free, life saving vaccine but happily buy an unverified "miracle cure" from a random website. I still remember a village of KP where people would even set dogs loose on polio workers to avoid vaccination.

[Asma @AasmaaHaq]

Decades of campaigns, efforts and resources later, still...

[Arab News Pakistan @arabnewspk]

Pakistan vaccinates more than 27.7 million children against polio in an ongoing sub-national immunization campaign, the NEOC says. https://t.co/oZc8DqlpkU

Rebuilding is only half the job. We need better last mile warnings, safer settlement planning, management of forest cover and slope vulnerability. Next extreme rainfall event shouldn't find communities as exposed as they were last time.

@SirAnnDee @essel1 Interesting. But a judge's direction doesn't change the fact what law says about it. And that can be challenged.

[Asma @AasmaaHaq]

@SirAnnDee @essel1 CP laws across all provinces and ISB were meant to make redress accessible without usual burden of legal representation or ordinary court fee. A consumer can file a complaint themselves without a lawyer, and no court fee is charged for filing, except charges for lab testing etc.

[Asma @AasmaaHaq]

@MohsinHijazee True. At this point even "uncertain" feels like an understatement.

[Asma @AasmaaHaq]

Okay, but the height difference and line up.
