Now industrial units have also joined them as they have started using wood and coal as fuel. The textile industry has been hit the hardest by the gas crisis as they have to keep their boilers burning. But due to non-availability of gas, they are forced to burn wood or coal, which adds to environmental pollution. This could put textile exports to the US and the EU in risk because these Western importers are very particular about the industry's role in climate change. The production cost of the export industry has increased three to five times due to the use of wood, coal, and furnaces, Balwani said.

PTI chief Imran Khan will not get away so easily from the sale of The Toshakhana gifts, especially the watches gifted by Saudi Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman. As was explained at the time of the original disclosures, Me Khan had sold gifts that he had legally taken back from the Toshakhana after paying 50 percent of their assessed value. PM’s Interior Adviser is also shown as performing the personal service of finding Ms ‘Gogi’ a buyer, raising questions about why he was performing such a personal task. Being Bollywood to retain gifts after paying part of the assessed value will only be workable if the assessments are not honest. It might be best not to allow any retention, and compel the surrender of all gifts received to the Toshakhana.

Zulfikar Ali Bhutto (14 Aug 1973 to 5 July 1977) was the last real or relevant Prime Minister of Pakistan. Personally, I always had respect for Jamali Sahib but he had surrounded himself with people of vested interests and sycophants. In the words of Comrade Hanif Ramay, “Bhutto Sahib left the struggle from where it had started”. From a relevant PM like ZAB to the current irrelevant head of government the decline has been painful and uncalled for. In the words of Comrade Hanif Ramay, “Bhutto Sahib left the struggle from where it had started”.

Taking a step back is not always a step in the backward direction but sometimes it can be a step in the right direction. A step in the right direction does not always mean a step in the forward direction.

It will not be a backward step rather it will be a step in the right direction.

Share:It appears that some promising developments came out of the 27th Conference of Parties (COP 27), held this year in Egypt. One of the major achievements is that of the development of the Global Shield Fund, which aims to align behind vulnerable coun­tries’ “strategies for closing protection gaps using a broad range of appropriate instruments”. Pakistan is one of the seven countries—called the “pathfinder countries”, which are the recipients of this funding. It is almost unanimous­ly agreed by all scholars, scientists and leaders that climate change played a huge part in increasing the frequency and strength of floods. Pakistan contributes minimally to global GHG emissions—our 2020 emissions of carbon dioxide accounted for less than 0.7 per­cent of global emissions.

Ukraine foreign ministry spokesman Oleg Nikolenko urged African countries to press Russia not to use their citizens in its war in Ukraine. “We call on African Union and all African states to demand that Russia stop press-ganging their nationals,” Nikolenko wrote on social media. “We are clarifying this question,” Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov said, according to the RIA Novosti news agency.

SAN FRANCISCO: A Twitter imposter cost a US pharmaceutical giant billions of dollars, but the viral prank triggered another unexpected crisis — a new wave of scrutiny of the high cost of its insulin. “Fake Eli Lilly might be offering something closer to the truth than real Eli Lilly,” Peter Maybarduk, from the nonprofit Public Citizen, told AFP. The backlash against Eli Lilly showcased the real-life potential of online disinformation to trigger chaos and financial loss. By Friday, Eli Lilly executives ordered a halt to all ad campaigns on Twitter, a move that could potentially cost the platform millions of dollars. Eli Lilly and Twitter did not respond to AFP‘s request for comment.
