KARACHI
\nAs part of its commitment to environmental sustainability, Jazz, Pakistan\u2019s leading digital operator, organized a beach cleanup at Clifton Beach, Karachi, on World Cleanup Day.
\nThe initiative, aligned with Jazz\u2019s ESG agenda, aimed to raise awareness about marine pollution and encourage the protection of marine ecosystems, with employees actively participating to promote a cleaner environment.
\nThis year\u2019s World Cleanup Day, themed \u2018Make Room For Life,\u2019 emphasizes the urgent need to tackle global waste and marine debris.
\nWith 80% of ocean pollution from land-based sources, over 10 million metric tons of plastic enter the oceans annually, threatening marine life and ecosystems, and introducing harmful microplastics into the food chain.
\nSyed Fakhar Ahmed, Jazz\u2019s Chief Corporate & Regulatory Affairs Officer, stated, \u201cJazz\u2019s commitment to environmental sustainability drives us to actively combat marine pollution.
\nBy raising awareness about solid waste\u2019s impact on ecosystems, we aim to foster environmental stewardship and protect the planet for future generations. Every step towards a cleaner environment contributes to a better future for all.\u201d
