Migratory species are facing critical challenges according to the State of the World’s Migratory Species report.
Overexploitation and habitat loss due to human activity are the two greatest threats to migratory species. Climate change is exacerbating existing threats.

Manchar Lake is an important ecological system that helps store floodwaters, provides habitat for aquatic life, and provides livelihood to local communities. It is important to conserve #MancharLake for the survival of the #indigenous #Mohana community. #climatechange

[Climate Kahani @ClimateKahani]

Let's amplify the voice of #Mohana, raise awareness about their struggle and advocate for their preservation.

کیا آپ جانتے ہیں ؟

منچھر جھیل پاکستان کے بڑے آبی ذخائر میں سے ایک ہے۔

520مربع کلومیٹر پر پھیلی یہ جھیل صوبہ سندھ کے ضلع دادو میں واقع ہے۔

کہا جاتا ہے کہ یہ جھیل موہن جودڑو اور ہڑپہ کی تہذیبوں سے بھی قدیم ہے ۔

Siberian Storks, once majestic hunters and pets for the tribe, used to migrate to Manchar Lake. Sadly, environmental degradation, climate change, and industrial waste have disrupted this ancient tradition, putting the tribe's practices at risk.

Justice delayed is justice denied: Despite their efforts to seek justice from the World Bank to the apex court of Pakistan, the issues faced by Manchar Lake and its communities remain unresolved.

Embarking on a journey down the memory lane with Mustafa Mirani, as he fondly reminisces about the rich tapestry of Mohana's lifestyle. From vibrant fishing activities to the soulful folk singing culture, weaving a simple yet intricate story of their vibrant traditions.

[Climate Kahani @ClimateKahani]

Mustafa Mirani suggests that a coordinated strategic effort by all stakeholders is a simple and practical solution to revive Manchar Lake and its biodiversity. An honest and well-thought-out plan is all that we need to address the challenges faced by the freshwater lake.

RBOD's impact on Manchar Lake is devastating. Once a lifeline for fishermen and a crucial source of irrigation, the largest freshwater lake in the country now faces environmental disaster as it serves as the final disposal point for RBOD-I effluent.

[Climate Kahani @ClimateKahani]

The construction of the Right Bank Outfall Drain (RBOD) raises fears due to parallels with the problematic Left Bank Outfall Drain (LBOD), impacting the Lower Indus basin. RBOD is expected to harm the delta, mangroves, and historical sites like Aamri.

The RBOD, a canal on the Indus River's right bank in Pakistan since the 1990s, has devastated Manchar Lake. The project directed harmful waste into the lake, making its water toxic. Mustafa Mirani proposes a practical solution for lake restoration.

Manchar Lake overflowed when the 2022 floods in Pakistan escalated. Heavy rain worsened a decades-long environmental catastrophe at the country's largest freshwater lake, compounding the challenges faced by communities along the Indus River banks.

[Climate Kahani @ClimateKahani]

Mustafa sheds light on the aftermath of the 2022 flash flood – a stark reminder of the inadequacy of relief funds. The support from authorities fell short, putting their future in jeopardy. Urgent calls for a robust action plan to tackle unforeseen climate disasters.
