Pakistan been named the ‘Forestry Champion,’ and will guide other Asian countries interested in forestry

Pakistan would have the privilege of advising Asian countries on forestry and green measures to combat climate change’s effects.

Pakistan was one of three countries chosen as “Forestry Champions” around the globe during the UN Climate Summit COP26 in Glasgow, together with Costa Rica and Congo.

The UN has now tasked these three countries with advising their continents on forestry and green initiatives as part of global efforts to address the growing threat of climate change.

An official said that Pakistan would now serve as a leading green country in Asia, sharing its experiences with other countries in the region concerning highly praised green programmes like the Ten Billion Tree Tsunami project, Clean Green Pakistan, and Protected Areas Initiatives.
