Marked by disenchantment and duality, the world’s policy on climate change has failed to do a bit to contain the rising greenhouse emissions level, and thereby the global warming, dragging the Planet Earth to the grave piecemeal. While a conscious and educated developed world is at least making some effort to offset the consequences of their industrial and commercial pursuits, here in Pakistan the complexity is ‘oversimplified’ and the official policy is narrowed down to planting trees only. Strangely though, our prime minister appears to believe that the global take is far premature than his ‘mature’ vision.
