Getting the record straight on Climate Change

A symposium on 'Climate Change' was held on September 2, 2025 at the Pakistani American Cultural Center.  The program was organized by Jilani Yousuf, a Karachi intellectual working with multiple non-profit organizations.  The two main speakers were Dr. Syed Imran Ahmed, a professor at the N.E.D. University, and Yasir Husain, Director of Climate Action Center.

Key takeaways:

Climate change refers to permanent changes in weather in the past 18 years observed over a period of last 30 years. Dr. Syed Imran Ahmed

Karachi has sufficient water resources to fulfill the needs of its around 30 million residents. Bad governance is the main problem. Dr. Syed Imran Ahmed

There are international climate funds available for people, communities, and governments of third world countries--a big portion of this money routinely goes unclaimed. Yasir Husain

Karachi is one of the dirtiest cities in the world

 

 

Karachi is one of the dirtiest cities in the world!  How utterly shameful!

Karachi has chronic water shortages.

Karachi traffic is a mess, most of the time. 

Not sure about your moral values, but my morality guides me to either solve a problem I don't like seeing, or at least not aggravate the situation. 

 

Trash

I try to generate as little trash as I can by using khajoor-ki-tokri for grocery shopping, and by burying the organic waste generated in my kitchen.

 

Water

I flush the toilet only once a day.  For my kidney water disposal need I use an empty cooking oil container.  Next morning when I am done with the toilet routine, I empty out the container in the WC and then flush the toilet.

 

Traffic

I hardly go out and when I do I try to get as many things done as possible, in one trip.
