    @Mariam said in One Small Step for you,One Big step for Sustainability.There is always Something to improve !:

    Here in my country Pakistan every year then summer is becoming more hot due to climate change.

    Dear Mariam, may I ask you a question?
    I have heard that Pakistan is one of the countries with the greatest number of β€œclimate refugees,” or people displaced due to climate events and natural disasters.

    Do you have such a tendency?

    P.S.: the idea with a "climate change camp" is amazing, I will take it to my list of ideas πŸ™‚

  • Dear ma'am Ana yes it's true Pakistan has faced the natural disasters Which severely affected the areas where it happened . As far as climate refugee are concerned it is natural that peoples home have destroyed and due to heavy casualties they had to leave the area but for time being then government of Pakistan has built new Houses and agricultural activities and worked on rehabilitation process not only this but new schools were built for children . definitely they build camps at first but due to taking every possible step they had to migrate for time being.but still it needs a huge work to be done.

    1. 2005 Kashmir Earthquake: On October 8, 2005, a 7.6 magnitude earthquake struck the Kashmir region, affecting northern Pakistan and parts of India. It resulted in over 86,000 deaths and left millions homeless.

    2. 2010 Pakistan Floods: Starting in July 2010, heavy monsoon rains led to devastating floods, impacting around one-fifth of Pakistan's total land area. Approximately 20 million people were affected, with significant loss of life, homes, and infrastructure.

    3. 2013 Balochistan Earthquake: On September 24, 2013, a 7.7 magnitude earthquake hit the Awaran district in Balochistan, causing widespread destruction and killing at least 825 people.

    4. 2014 Floods In September 2014, heavy monsoon rains caused extensive flooding in the Punjab, Gilgit-Baltistan, and Azad Jammu and Kashmir regions. The floods affected millions of people, resulting in significant loss of life and property.

    5. 2015 Chitral Floods and Glacial Lake Outburst.The Chitral district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa faced severe floods and a glacial lake outburst in July 2015, leading to significant damage and displacement..

  • Hi Mariam
    all natural disasters affect a large continent of the world, but we will always adapt....besides, climate change affects several Asian continents as well as other African countries and especially the drought.

    Hello Chokri,
    The project is being implemented to create a green school. As pupils receive bottles of water everyday at school, these bottles are being converted into flower pots. The students, teachers and the community are being involved in this project.

    Hello Mariam,

    These natural disasters have a great impact on the country. It is difficult for authorities to cope with these unpredicted calamities. The education sector as well is affected though we have the facilities of online teaching. Additional resources are needed to conduct the class online.

  • Your dedication to sustainability and continuous improvement is truly inspiring. As educators, we have a unique opportunity to influence future generations and instill these crucial values.
    Your approach of focusing on incremental changes is spot-on. It's easy to feel overwhelmed by the scale of environmental challenges, but recognizing that every small action counts can motivate us and our students to keep pushing forward.
    Your commitment to ongoing improvement sets a powerful example.
    Keep up the excellent work. Your passion is undoubtedly making a real difference, both for the environment and for the students you're inspiring along the way.

  • Re: [One Small Step for you](One Big step for Sustainability.There is always Something to improve !)
    Exactly Sir... Every small step counts. We should need to do our part of work. Thanks for sharing the great content.

  • @Bousl2336873cb4 You're absolutely right that there is always something that can be improved when it comes to sustainability. Whether it's reducing waste, increasing renewable energy use, improving efficiency, or changing behaviors - there are always opportunities to make positive changes.
    Taking "one small step" and making incremental improvements is often the best approach. Sustainability is a journey, not a destination, so celebrating the small wins along the way is important.
    Those small steps can indeed add up to "one big step" for sustainability overall. Collective action through many individuals and organizations making gradual improvements can drive substantial progress.
    The mindset of always looking for ways to enhance sustainability, no matter how modest, is commendable. Maintaining that spirit of continuous improvement is really valuable.

  • Hi Sir hoping you have a good time,

    One small step for you one Big step for sustainability, the phrase or sentence reminds me the time when there was less modernisation. I belive when something changes the transition period is bit crucial but from less modren to a Hi-teach world has got lot of time of transition. This transition built many bad practices that cause our lives nd our earth's lives in a more dangerous position.

         I agreed to all your point but could i say back to the roots. 
    

    Where we were eating organic foods, no extra use of electricity, neither transportation used for small distances, using local things with minimal packaging, community level social gethering for betterment of community, and also awareness for environmental issues, well structured airy and opened houses, investments in term for collective benefits not for individuals interest.

  • @Bousl2336873cb4 Development is the development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs .

  • Hello Sehar
    Sustainable development is about meeting present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own. It balances economic growth, social equity, and environmental protection, ensuring that development today does not deplete resources or harm the environment for tomorrow. This approach promotes inclusive economic growth, social well-being, and responsible management of natural resources.

  • Hi Sehar
    The concept you're referring to is known as sustainable development. This idea emphasizes that development should be carried out in a way that satisfies the current needs of people while ensuring that resources and opportunities remain available for future generations. It balances economic growth, social inclusion, and environmental protection to ensure long-term sustainability.

    Is there something specific you'd like to explore about sustainable development?
