Its just sign of upcoming “bad” humidity increase level.
climate change ….depleting ozone layer…..melting ice caps …..destruction of trees and greenery ……industrialization drive ….booming population ….
Ozone layer is actually repairing itself. (you can google it)
No scientific study supporting the fact that its repairing itself. If you find one please send me a link .
I just google “Ozone repairing” and the result is filled with all “scientific studies” you can read about Ozone healing…
Can’t post the links, since its not allowed in ProPakistani.
The question isn’t if it’s repairing itself. The question is whether it can repair itself faster than we keep damaging it. Which it cannot, which is why we need to dial down on the environmental factors we can control.
Ozone layer is just one aspect of global warming anyway. Even if it repairs itself fully, global warming won’t just magically fade away the next day.
So what we are supposed to do here. We see all the garbage, those blocked sewerage and tonnes of trash all around Karachi. This city is dying..
Appreciated .Thanks
