On #ZeroEmissionsDay, we discuss UNEP’s new Limiting Overshoot report and why every fraction of warming matters.

1.5°C is still the goal.
A new report from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) highlights the importance of limiting any rise above 1.5°C and keeping any overshoot as small and as short as possible.
The higher temperatures rise, and the longer they remain elevated, the greater the risks to people, nature and economies.
Going beyond 1.5°C is not a reason to give up on the goal. It is a reason to accelerate action to cut emissions, protect nature and bring warming back below the threshold.

For years, Badri Pond has supported communities & ecosystems. Sedimentation, blocked flow paths & eroded embankments have reduced its ability to retain water.
#RechargePakistan is restoring the pond to strengthen local water security.

اس یومِ آزادی، اُن بے زبان جانداروں کی آزادی کا بھی خیال رکھیں جنہیں تجارت اور قید کا سامنا کرنا پڑتا ہے۔
جنگلی حیات ہماری قدرتی وراثت کا حصہ ہیں، اور ان کا تحفظ ہماری مشترکہ ذمہ داری ہے۔
اس یومِ آزادی، عہد کریں کہ ہم پاکستان کے جنگلی حیات کو غیر قانونی تجارت اور قید سے محفوظ رکھنے میں اپنا کردار ادا کریں گے۔

Flooding cannot remain a headline Pakistan repeats year after year.
As heavy rains threaten lives, homes and livelihoods, we must move from repeated recovery to long-term resilience - restoring wetlands, floodplains and water channels to help reduce risk.
