Foreign Office has said that Pakistan's commitment to address Climate Change and Prime Minister Imran Khan's leadership on this account is well accepted and appreciated around the world.

In a statement today (Saturday), Spokesperson Zahid Hafeez Choudhari said the Government's landmark initiatives like the Billion Tree Tsunami have won international acclaim, including from the World Economic Forum.

He said that Pakistan is also meaningfully contributing to shape the global Climate Change discourse, inter alia, as the Vice President of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change and member of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.

He said that Pakistan also Co-chaired the multibillion-dollar Green Climate Fund, established to support climate actions in developing countries, last year.

The Leaders' Summit on Climate Change hosted by President Biden reconvenes the U.S.-led Major Economies Forum on Energy and Climate, which brings together leaders from countries responsible for approximately 80 percent of global emissions and GDP.

The Spokesperson said that Pakistan, despite being among the top ten countries affected by Climate Change, is one of the lowest emitters - with less than one percent of the global emissions.
