Caretaker Minister for Information and Broadcasting Murtaza Solangi has called for collective revolutionary measures to avoid the damages caused climate change.

Speaking at the "Pre COP28: Paris to Dubai " seminar in Islamabad, he said that future of the coming generations must be secured. He said the planet is faced with dangers of climate change and the government, or any department alone cannot solve this problem.

The Minister said we need a strategic vision to tackle the challenge of climate change. The whole society has to realize about climate change issue.  Murtaza Solangi said without bringing about change in society, the dangers of climate change cannot be addressed.

The minister urged the international community to play its role in the countries being badly affected by climate change. He also urged the parents, teachers, film, television drama writers, poets, elders in the society to discuss the harms of climate change.

Murtaza Solangi said that the present generation had a responsibility to take urgent steps to protect the planet from the negative impacts of climate change for the sake for future generations. The Minister said Pakistan is one of the most affected countries by climate change, although it had very small role in causing climate change.

Stressing the need for media role in the creation of awareness among the masses over environmental issues, he said that Pakistan Television will establish a special desk for climate change with dedicated staff filing reports on environmental issues. He urged all media houses to come forward and play a proactive role in highlighting environmental issues on their screens and newspapers.
