Synopsis

This book presents insights from the International Conference on Climate Change Mitigation and Environmental Amelioration through Plants and Other Sustainable Practices. It brings together leading experts, researchers, and policymakers to share innovative solutions for today’s pressing climate challenges.   Focusing on Pakistan―ranked 5th most vulnerable to climate change―the volume highlights the urgent impacts of extreme weather, glacier melt, air and water pollution, and biodiversity loss. At the same time, it showcases opportunities for resilience through sustainable practices, plant-based innovations, agroforestry, carbon sequestration, and modern technologies.   By combining research, policy, and practice, the book emphasizes the need for collaborative, multi-tier strategies to safeguard natural resources and promote a more sustainable future.
