Pakistan seems to have embarked on a road for better environmental standards as thousands of people and hundreds of schools were lured to Indus Motor Company (IMC) and WWF-Pakistan Nature Carnival 2012 on last Sunday at PAF Museum, Karachi. Students from more than 150 schools, colleges and universities participated in the TSEP-2012 to showcase their green ideas for environmental conservation.
The objective of this programme was to foster a sense of individual responsibility and accountability in the future generations of Pakistan towards nature conservation. CEO, IMC Parvez Ghias said that IMC and WWF-Pakistan are committed to create awareness about environmental conservation among youth to safeguard the rapidly-polluting environment of the country so that upcoming generations could breathe in fresh air.
"It is heartening and encouraging to see how these young students and teachers are engaged in environmental education to promote learning about critical environmental challenges of Pakistan," said Ghias while delivering his address as chief guest at the award distribution ceremony of the competition.
