Clean, 'green', peaceful and prosperous for any country is a slogan any politician cannot meet, least of all Pakistanis, citizens or politicians alike, many of whom do not bother paying their taxes. Being clean and green etc. requires huge funding and a quick shift in mindset as the world is now being confronted with global warming and possibly unchartered waters.

Clean,Green,Peaceful,educated, and prosperous Pakistan should be the manifesto of all the Political parties as well as masses. In my opinion, Clean and Green Pakistan is the first step to solve all of our problems In sha Allah.
