Sentinel-2 Satellite Analysis Reveals Limited Forest Fire Impact in Kotli Sattian & Kahuta. Satellite imagery analysis shows that recent forest fires primarily affected ground vegetation, with most tree canopies remaining intact. Detailed assessment indicates approximately 1,819.69 acres were impacted, including 993.98 acres of State Forests, while no significant large-scale tree loss was detected. Experts believe the affected areas have strong potential for natural regeneration and recovery.

Monsoon season system is lagging behind with almost a week as compared to normal season. This means that weather system will reach Pakistan after first week of July with weak strength owing to El Nino conditions leading to below normal rains. @PakStartup @sherryrehman

Lahore is not just growing. It is heating up. This animation shows 15 years of nighttime land surface temperature data from Lahore, revealing how rising urbanization and the loss of green spaces are reshaping the city's climate. As we mark World Environment Day, this serves as a reminder that trees, parks, farmland, and urban green spaces are not luxuries. They are among our strongest natural defences against extreme heat.
