PTCL signed a MoU with WWF-Pakistan

PTCL signed a Memorandum of Understanding with WWF-Pakistan and committed to support plantation of 200,000 mangrove seeds at Miani Hor Balochistan as part of the nationwide Rung Do campaign.

Pakistan contains a diverse topography of geographical features and is home to incredibly diverse flora and fauna. Over the last century, the lack of understanding and awareness has led to human practices that have exploited the country’s natural resources without replenishing them. A growing population and increasing infrastructure needs have also led to the decimation of animal habitats and forests and resulted in loss and endangerment of animal and plant species only found in Pakistan.
