The idea of transforming rooftops into lush green spaces is a simple yet effective way to bring nature closer to our homes. While not all houses have lawns, every house has a roof, providing an untapped opportunity to create a verdant oasis. By planting flowers, herbs, or vegetables in pots on the roof, we can not only beautify our surroundings but also contribute to a healthier environment.
.
Rooftop gardens offer numerous benefits, including improved air quality, reduced urban heat island effects, and increased biodiversity. They also provide a peaceful retreat for residents, allowing them to connect with nature and unwind. In urban areas where green spaces are scarce, rooftop gardens can be a valuable asset, helping to mitigate the effects of pollution and climate change.
.
The concept of a "green house" is not just about aesthetics; it's also about creating a sustainable living space. By incorporating plants into our rooftops, we can reduce our carbon footprint and promote eco-friendly practices. This initiative can be taken up by individuals, communities, or even entire cities, making a significant impact on the environment.
.
Imagine a Pakistan where every rooftop is a vibrant green space, teeming with life and color. A country where residents take pride in their surroundings and work together to create a more sustainable future. This vision is achievable, one rooftop at a time. By embracing the idea of green houses, we can contribute to a broader goal of creating a greener, more environmentally conscious Pakistan.
.
Ultimately, the benefits of rooftop gardens extend beyond individual homes to the entire planet. As we work towards creating a greener Pakistan, we are also contributing to a global movement towards sustainability. By making conscious choices about our environment and taking small steps towards positive change, we can collectively make a significant impact. So, let's plant those pots, nurture our rooftop gardens, and strive towards a greener, more beautiful world – a green house, a green Pakistan, and a green earth.

# Take Shelter
.
In the event of an aerial or drone strike, seek shelter immediately. Opt for underground locations such as:
● Basements
● Subway tunnels
.
If underground shelter is not available, follow these guidelines:
● Stay near walls without windows or glass, but avoid leaning against them to minimize injury from percussion or earth shock.
● If outside, quickly head to the nearest building.
● If no building is accessible, take shelter in the lowest part of a building, away from windows.
.
# Taking Cover in the Open
.
If no building is nearby, find the lowest area of ground (e.g., a ditch) and:
● Lay flat on your face
● Support your head with your arms
.
# Other Protective Measures
.
● Cover exposed skin with non-flammable materials or clothing to prevent burns.
● Close your eyes to protect them from debris.
● Keep your mouth slightly open to help protect your lungs from blast injuries.
.
# Preparation is Key
.
● Identify the safest room in your house, ideally a basement or a room with few windows.
● Have plastic sheeting and tape ready to protect windows from shattering.
● Create an ad-hoc shelter using available materials like tables, mattresses, and books.
● Ensure a supply of drinking water and food.
● Turn off electricity and gas to minimize risks.
.
# Important Safety Guidelines
.
✦ Do not:
● Take photos during the air raid.
● Shelter near windows.
● Lean against walls.
● Congregate in large groups, especially in open areas.
.
✦ Do:
● Promptly report all close calls to ensure safety and response efforts.
.
By following these guidelines, you can minimize risks and stay safe during aerial and drone strikes.

The last sunset of the year 2024 - 241231Tu

  The last sunset of the year 2024

I've been fascinated with capturing life's moments since I received a smart-phone as a gift a few years ago. I often take random photos and videos of nature especially people, places, and things that catch my attention. Two things that have particularly captivated me are the sky – especially clouds and the moon. I'm drawn to the patterns of cascading clouds of different shades and tints of gray and the moon's beauty, particularly during sunset and full moon nights.
.
One day, I had an idea to capture the last sunset of the year. I eagerly waited for the last day of the year, but unfortunately, I completely forgot about my plan. The following year, I set an alarm on my phone, but the sky was filled with clouds at the right moment. The next year, I set the alarm again, but I was busy with work and reached the rooftop of our home about five minutes late.
.
This year, I hadn't set any reminders, but I still remembered my old plan a few days before the end of the year. I kept reminding myself that I had to try again. I made my way to the rooftop a little earlier than sunset, readied my phone, and waited for the perfect moment. And then, it happened – I captured some stunning photos and a video of the year's final sunset. Masha ALLAH!.
.
After years of attempts, I finally succeeded in capturing the last sunset of the year. Today's achievement was truly rewarding, making all the previous tries worthwhile.
.
After required number of days I again went to Passport office Sadder Karachi and this time I got my first green Pakistani passport.
