Highlighting the importance of tree plantation, the Prime Minister said that if a tree needs to be removed from somewhere, it should be safely replanted to another place.
In a separate development, PM Khan said on Wednesday that Pakistan had established its credibility as a ‘Green champion’ due to the flagship 10 Billion Tree Tsunami program.
Speaking during the cabinet meeting, the premier said the world is now following Pakistan’s efforts in tree plantation. He called on the rich countries to help developing countries in dealing with climate change impacts.
