Services Hospital has joined World Wide Fund for Nature-Pakistan (WWF-P) to reduce environmental degradation in the country. As part of the Earth Day campaign to plant more than 50,000 trees, Services Hospital pledged to do its part in a ceremony held at the hospital here on Tuesday.
Professor Dr Hamid Mahmood Butt, the Principal of Services Institute of Medical Sciences, Hafiz Abdur Rehman, the Sales Manager from Pharm Evo, and Dr Rehana Malik, the Superintendent of Services Hospital Lahore, planted tree saplings inside the premises of the hospital to commemorate the pledge.
They were accompanied by other personnel of the hospital, including Dr Muhammad Moazzam and AMS Professor, Dr Abdul Mannan Qureshi, the Head of Urology Department, Dr Aamir Mirza, the Additional AMS, and Dr Captain Muhammad Zafar, the Additional MS for Admin.
The senior physicians and doctors who took part in the plantation activity expressed their concern for the degrading environment of Lahore and Pakistan, and how these environmental changes are affecting the health and economy of the people of the region.
They commented that environmental health is directly related to human health and cited the mega tree plantation drive for Earth Day a good initiative on the public level to highlight the fact. Speaking at the occasion, Professor Dr Hamid Mahmood Butt said they are participating in this activity to address the heavy industrialisation in our city centres and the growing rate of urbanisation. All these factors impact the environment and they wish to secure the environment for future generations, he added. The event was jointly co-ordinated and organised by WWF-P and Pharm-Evo.
