ITALY: Special Assistant to the Ministry of Overseas for Italy, Ikramuddin, has called for collective and sustained efforts to protect the environment, conserve natural resources and address the growing challenges posed by climate change.

In his message on the occasion of World Environment Day, Ikramuddin said environmental pollution, climate change, deforestation, water scarcity and the loss of biodiversity remain among the most serious threats facing the world today.

He noted that Pakistan is among the countries most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, making the promotion of environmentally friendly policies and sustainable practices more important than ever.
