The Role of Industries in Worsening Climate Change Impacts
Industries in Faisalabad are playing a significant role in amplifying the negative effects of climate change. One major issue is the discharge of industrial wastewater into rivers and other water bodies, which has led to an alarming rise in salt and toxic metal levels in the groundwater. Additionally, the city’s rapidly growing population is further exacerbating these environmental challenges. With more people, the problems of waste management and plastic pollution have become more severe, creating a major environmental crisis. Dr. Muhammad Arfan, an expert in Integrated Water Resources Management, highlights these critical issues and discusses potential solutions to combat climate change.
