Sindh Forest Dept has successfully inked the MoU with Urban Forest Coalition, for enhancing green cover over port city of Sindh. MoU was signed by Mr:Shahzad Qureshi. Around 30 Millions saplings of native species are to be planted in #Karachi under different partnership programs.

Actually, don’t just take note. You were wrong. Correct the repeated error and apologise.

Now as #COP26  is coming to an end, beware of a tsunami of greenwashing and media spin to somehow frame the outcome as “good”, “progress”, “hopeful” or “a step in the right direction”.

It was great to meet @Shazy900 today to discuss all things #urban #forestry and #green #infrastructure - some amazing stuff going on in #karachi that is worth watching out for - hopefully lots of exciting discussions could be ahead

This year, one of the hottest ever recorded, BBC teams filmed in 10 countries where extreme heat is already having a profound impact on people’s lives

They captured the reality of climate change, for millions on Earth

Meet @Shazy900q who aims to cool down #Karachi through @UrbanForestPK using the #Miyawaki method.

With over 35,000 native species 🌳 🌱 thriving in the Forest, we all need to do our part by planting a tree to help fight #climatechange.

@EUROCITIES We agree with the need to slow down the pace in the city 🚲
Making them greener 💚🌳 and more sustainable is also a must. At CREAF we believe this and that's why we are researching Nature Based Solutions #NBS and #urbanforest.

[Urban Forest Pakistan @UrbanForestPK]

Anxiously waiting and hoping that we initiate the Large Scale GREEN Infrastructure Development Program for our Cities.

#Trees. The option is not public transit or trees. It’s both: public transit AND trees, lots of trees. Citywide public transit & trees, less cars, more density, safe & enjoyable walking & riding bicycles to access BRTs, LRTs, and TREEs.
