Supply-side policies to control industrial pollution

Recently a few private banks jointly organized a training session in Karachi for their sales s on how to market green financing products. It is a good initiative and can work if effectively managed through a robust marketing strategy. To stimulate the demand for green financing products the main challenge is to convince businesses their higher profit without covering the social cost i.e. environmental pollution - can never be ethically their due share. If it is they are convinced, one can hope to create a market for this newly introduced financing product.

Industrial pollution – the main sources of environmental pollution by businesses – pollutes the water with its effluent and contaminates the air with its emissions. Like every country, Pakistan does have legal tools to control it but despite their enforcement, it can’t be controlled beyond a negligible level. Why? Its answer is lengthy and every saner person does know it. Enumerating the reasons here is not the subject matter of this article. Here the main purpose is to discuss how to influence businesses to control the menace of pollution at its source.

There are three sides where industrial pollution can be controlled. The first one is the regulatory side by enforcing the environmental laws in their true spirit. For a developing country like Pakistan hoping to fully exploit this legal tool can be anything but a viable approach. The built-

Basics Of Auto Recycling And Pollution Load

You can’t throw your fully used or out-of-order car like garbage. It is not only environmentally bad but also it is not allowed anywhere in the world to dump your used car anywhere you want. 

Even if you want to throw it as scrap you have to send it to any designated place where it is allowed to throw it. 

You rarely use a car to the full limit of its service life. The day your car creates any problem for you off and on you decide to either sell it to one who wants to buy a used car or you want to sell it to an auto recycling company. 

Basics of auto recycling

People assume that auto recycling companies recycle the entire out-of-order cars to make them new. They don’t know the basics of auto recycling. No recycling

Do We Have Public Awareness? Who Cares!

The good news is that the level of public awareness is gradually rising spontaneously all over the world, including Pakistan. And the bad news is that institutional efforts are not able to boost it significantly, because no work is being done on a sustainable basis for its improvement institutionally anywhere in the world.  In countries where human rights abuses, environmental violations, gender discrimination, sexual harassment, and similar serious evils are rampant, there is a pressing need for public awareness. However, because of its incorrect perception all over the world, the public is not being made aware effectively of such sensitive issues.

The dismally lower level of public awareness around the world was witnessed at the time of the outbreak of the dangerous global epidemic Covid 19. Half of the population initially pooh-poohed it, while the other half though acknowledged it but did not take it seriously until it saw the catastrophe with its own eyes.  It suggests that the institutional efforts to raise awareness on Covid 19 did not achieve the desired public acceptance.

Has Karachi really become the most polluted city?

How accurate is it that various online applications for air quality analysis have repeatedly declared Karachi's ambient air the most polluted in the world over the past several days?  Strangely enough, there is currently no centralized system in the world that can automatically analyze the atmosphere of all the world's cities. Nor is there an agency whose representatives are simultaneously monitoring the air quality of all major cities around the world.  

Free Air Index Apps

Take a look at the free applications that every conscious person downloads on

their smartphone and sees a dangerous rating of their city as a polluted city. The outcome is their higher level of anxiety, blood pressure and sugar.  

Partiality of Data

The overall air quality data on the Internet is also unreliable because in most of them there is only one parameter of air quality analysis as compare to its total five to six main parameters.  These are PM2.5, PM10, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide and ozone gas, the amount of which is called air pollution when it exceeds a certain limit.  

How to prevent pollution with unity?

You wonder how to prevent pollution with unity? Yes, you can if you stand united against polluters. You must stop every act of polluting for the health and safety of our kids. You must not be afraid of following the environmentalism. It means to raise your voice against polluters.

Polluter may be a person, an institution, a company, a community, a country, or a process of any type that pollutes the environment. It means whoever is polluting our natural environment is a polluter. This may be intentional or unintentional.

An act of polluting may be small or huge. Those who pollute our environment shamelessly are actually

bloody polluters. They are putting our world at stake. Our planet won’t be safe if the pace of environmental degradation does not subside. So we must learn how to prevent pollution with unity.

Many people get angry whenever I compare the way of living of people of the past era and present era. Here past means up to a hundred years ago.

In the past, people were healthier, happier and richer than us. They were not habitual of laziness. They did not rely too much on machines. They were not after short-live benefits. They didn't think about the present only while forgetting the future. So they were quite better than us.

But now on the excuse of a fast way of living people want everything ready-made. What is the use of a fast life where you don’t have time to even take care of yourself?

Fast food, canned juices, looking busy and doing nothing is in no way taking care of you. It is actually hurting yourself and remain unaware of its harms.

Look around yourself and ask someone what is organic. He will likely tell you organic means a thing produced without any processing.
