Pollution due to Eid-ul-Azha and it’s effect on environment.
I am Agha Murtaza and I will be your host for today’s interview I would be honored to have Miss Asma Ajaz a distinguished Environmental Engineer with 25 years of experience in the field She holds a Bachelor Degree in Civil Engineering and a Master Degree in Environmental Engineering She is also a Member of Pakistan Engineering Council Engineering Miss Engineer Miss Ama Ajaj Extensive Knowledge in Areas Like Waste to Energy Climate Change Adaptation and Other Aspects of Environmental
Engineering Salam Welcome Ma’am My Name is Mohammad Bilal and I am a Student Of Second Semester Ma’am I have a question for you that can you tell us about how much animal waste is typically generated in Kanachi during Eidul Adha and why is it a problem for our land we find that there is a 3167 ton waste only in Karachi.
So what’s your comments on this Welcome Salaam Bilal and first of all my special thanks to you all like you have given me some time to spend together and just to get some knowledge about it so it’s a wonderful experience from myself as well as Bilal Answer to Your question beta like you have research and then you figure it out that almost 32 tons 32000 tons was only generated last year during the Eidul ad ceremony so and we are very close to have another one Inshallah within couple of days we are also celebrating Eidul Ad So you are right
absolutely right I am totally agree to it that it causes lot of land pollution not only land pollution air pollution water pollution you name it and besides this there are so many vector diseases vector diseases are two diseases which are spread by insects So it is very sad to say that like we all Muslims we do we celebrate this occasion as a Holi celebration and judge it as a special place as an Ibadat in our religion as well but it is very sad that we do not have any failings and any ethical values. And
respect for the animals like the animal is still alive and we just talk about the menu which part will be takka and which part will be nihari and what will happen without thinking that this is also a living creature so aa also experience couple of Il Ada Bak in America as well because my background is from America as well so I have experience that people have what ever the Chamni same ceremony for all the Muslims but they have special value and special respect for the animal here a particular Pakistani give Seem Like Burs So sorry to
say that all butchers are made and it’s like some job for their pride for their man hood where they celebrate their man’s hoard so the animals defeat them and then after that they tell with great pride that so many kilos The meat came out so much, the heart came out so much, it came out without any respect and in front of the animal, it was condemned in our body, so many places, don’t cut the animal, don’t stir the animal in front of another animal, but do you think that we have the same practice Here I
am sorry it is not happening here so think about it because you are from youth and the youth are always responsible to bring a positive change in every society so I have high expectation from you that you will bring a change yes it causes Land Pollution Because What Ever We Do We Just Collect The Flush The Meat Out Of It And Then You Know Because Of The Leather Because Of The Leather So The Skin Is Already Collected So The Filth Left Is The Stomach With Apartments Full Of Filth And Then You know like it just leave on the sites dozen
matter who is passing by blood is always very obvious you know on the sides and nobody is collecting it we are just waiting if Nawaz Sharif will go from here or Imran Khan will do or Shahbaz Sharif will do this Is Nothing But A Convive Behavior Our Legneva Happens Like Lot Of Fly Over There And Usually From Past Two Years This Is Happening During The Rainy Days Monsoon Season This Time It Is Extremely Hot Weather So The Production Of Germs Can Be Increased To Many folds so once the blood is there all the filth is there
and the people are nearby passing by children are playing nearby with a lot of blood is there and then fly sit there aventura sit on your food and what ever you are eating You’re consuming the same germs causing typhoid hepatitis other sort of problems so this blood is just leaving its stage there lock and then it starts mixing with the stagnant water because that water is also mixed a little bit inside it and then it starts You Know Like Absorb Into The Soil And Then Riches To Our Drainage System Some Times Soreage System And Mix With
The And We Get The Water Because We Are We Are Living In A Thickly Populated Urbanized City Karachi Is A Second Metropolis City In The World About The Population so the water it absorbs into our storage system and then you know the people getting the same type of water they can not afford the regular water bottle then they are consuming the same type of water causing them lot of diseases even are fatal to that The water that was coming out of it is the blood of the sacrificed meat and they are consuming it and causing them a lot of
stomach problems and sometimes even losing their lives due to it. Again it is also causing air pollution because of the pollution. Blood there and the germs are like multiplying into the air we are consuming the same air so makes us no spreading the disease and makes us sick and ethically and morally we don’t have any respect for the animal so just Think About It Before You Slaughter The Animal It’s A Holy Ritual So You Should Pay Extra Attention To It Thank You Balal Salaam Welcome Miss Ma Name I Ma And I
( Am Student Of Second Sem CSC And I Am Also Part Of This Panel To So My Question What are the types of waste produced during Eid ul Az and how do they affect the quality of soil in Karachi? Welcome Salam Mass Answer to question like you ask how it turns the oil right I already mentioned till the answer was not I was Answering to Balal because this is my expertise so I’m just full of the words so mass the reason why it causes the land pollution because like I told you that the filth is still remaining of the body parts and
are still their blood is there So even by soil and then you know it pollutes the area of the soil and then even if the weather is like rainy season like it happens from the past few years so during the monsoon season it mixes up with the storage. Water And So Many People Vach Can Not Afford The Table Water They Are Consuming The Same Type Of Water So It’s Causing Not Only Land Pollution It Also Causing The Water Pollution As Well And Damaging That Part Of Soil Because It Has A Lot Of Blood There Causing So many germs
to spread so that’s how we cause land pollution and along with the water pollution alam welcome my name is Ariba and my question is how does inappropriate disposal of animals during Eidul Az lead to land pollution and is it ethically correct and what are The visible science of the pollution causes pollution by the way thank you ari walekum assalam and you have very beautiful soft voice mashallah so good answer to your question almost similar ask balal and mas also ask this question yes it causes lot of land pollution and Air Pollution Water Pollution
and the Effective Way How to You Know to Avoid It It’s like an Einstein says if you’re not part of the problem then you’re part of the solution then you’re part of the problem so if we’re not coming up to Part of the Solution Then We’re Part of the Problem So What We Should Do Instead of We Know Like Waiting for the Government and All That and Other People to Collect Your Filth It’s Better If We Do It on Our Own On like dig a hole and first of all I have seen it like in America and other places
of the world even Saudi Arabia they have a biggest number of the slaughterers because of the Hajj happens here right millions of animals are slaughtered over there but You know like they are doing it in an organization way it is not important that you have to raise a nice knife on a and slaughter the animal with your own hands instead we can you no ask the organizations to do it on a collective basis like your home animals Laake Dam ke show which we do that do cow aa gayi teen cow aa gayi so this is we should stop it here this is
not the true meaning of true intention of having the something which is very holy to us so instead we should you No Like Form Organization We can also organize this thing from our local community that you just make a committee and organization of couple of people who are responsible for it make a special place where the animals can stay there and then you know like you Can Slutter When It’s Not Like Obvious to Other Animals Don’t Make Them Scared and Don’t Brag About Your Animal Like How Heavy it Was Are there they can you know they can arrange it
in an organized way dispose of they can do it by disposing to the solid solid waste management department and they can have better people how can they utilize this thing and if nobody is available because it Is so much of the people are of so what we can do we just dig a hole deep down and then you know like you can just breathe what ever filth was there just breed there instead of leaving it there and get the liver and kidney And all that and you know enjoying your lunch, we can dig a pit and pour it in it and being an
environmental engineer to avoid the air pollution what we can do, lime is very cheap, we can get a good amount of lime for about 1520 rupees. Just make a solution out of it and then you know put it on the blood like you must have seen in hospitals also it is a regular practice because it is a very good natural germ side without harming yourself and it is very affordable too so please you have couple of Days still I think 10 to 12 days are still remaining so just spread the public awareness please you guy you know
go and talk to the other people that don’t wait for the local communities to come and collect your filth and government is not there just get the Lime ready and then ya no like cover the blood and what ever remaining are there just cover with the lime because its natural lime actually lime powder your science student ya not ready so you can avoid so many types of pollution land pollution air pollution water pollution so I think this is the answer to Aripa question I believe thank you miss like you have said that about give an
example about so Arabia like say in the same way Turkey they also have the massive amount of fluct but they have a specific place to slaughter the animals and Dispose of the waste in a good manner so we should also employ that in Pakistan to Assalam Welcome My name is Massager and my question for you is can you explain how plastic bags used for distributor meat during the day contribute to land pollution and the impact they have Have On [Music] Environment Thank You Rums Rome S Aam Totally Agree To Your Question What Ever You Think But It’s
Not Only Cause Land Pollution Plastic Bags If You Like You Not Plastic Is The Greatest Cause Of Pollution Now Days And Space Greatest Cause Of Spreading The Cancer Like in Pakistan Every out of 10 every fourth woman is diagnosed with breast cancer even two we are the one who got married with in 30 years of age and we are the one who feed our babies with our own breast milk so the leading cause Is the cancer just because of the plastic Plastic is present everywhere even you can find it in you can find in placenta you
can find in mother milk as well so when you are a distributor so you are using lots of plastic bags which are covered with The With The Blood Most Of The Time And You Just Leave It Outside One People Use It People Just Dump It There For Two Days No No Janitor Is Available Someone Gets Leave For Trash Pickup And No Buddy Is There So The Filth Is Just Staying there causing to many bacteria and other bacteria type of bacteria virus you name it so and when you dispose of this plastic so the regular age of plastic is 200 years
if you bury it in the ground then nothing is going to happen to the plastic for 200 years This is that long lasting so the problem is that if you burn them then you know it causes air pollution. The gases coming out of it are directly causing cancer right harming the ozone layer.
Now if we bury them in the ground then we are Also causing the land pollution because of all the micro organics living there fungus bacteria which are harmful which are useful for the agriculture they are dying out because they are not carrying the oxygen because of being air tight right so and the plastic has N Ingredients F Because You Are Chemistry Student So You Know It Already And What Ever Thing Is Inside The Edible Thing Inside The Plastic Plastic Leaks Out With A Small Amount And It Mixes Up With Your Food And Edible Items So Most Of The People In the
world particularly Europe they already condemn the use of plastic so instead you can use like in when I was a child I’m talking about 50 years back when I was a child in my timings there was a practice that the old newspapers used to We used to cut it and make parts in it. It was a very atmosphere friendly sustainable way of disposing of unlike plastic.
Now your generation has no idea about this thing because you just grew up with the plastic. So very good question. By Ramsa You should like I told you already son you still have 12 days 12 to 13 days available please spread the message as a public awareness because you are lucky enough that you are privileged enough that you got the idea you got the awareness but not all the People So It’s Your Job It’s Your Duty It’s For Your Fareeza From Allah That You Share The Knowledge To The Regular People Who Have No Idea About It And By
Cutting Down Those Plastic Bags Instead We Can Buy The Old Newspapers We Can Wrap up the packages in it Last time I have seen the meat one there distributor by them themselves so they just contact to the meat one people it’s a big name I think you are aware of it so they are posing of the meat They are giving you your shades they are already packed up like in close and close bags 1 kg in each bag and the bag was made up of paper the discarded paper paper bag and it also creates a job you know like so many women do not
Have Any Skill Which Do Not Have Any Education To Raise Some Money To Share Their Part In The Family So What They Do They Just Make Envelopes At Home They Just Make Bags At Home So Which Bags Were Meat And Which Distributor Kagaz Sab R Paper From these three women, those women who do not have literacy, do not have any skill, they generate money, so it is very good way to contribute to them, so they can completely contribute to the family, thank you, Assalam alekum, my name is Umar Farooq, my question. What are the health
issues Pup and become like that ok welcome salam umar answer to your question son is that like health issues I have already discussed so many health issues achha what are the health issues one filth is there and blood is there but once we have Eidul Adha So We Try to Eat as Much as Meat as We Consume as We Can Like We Like Four Times a Day Five Times Six Times We Just Feed Ourselves with Meat Pure Meat and You Know We Just Keep Feeding our self with meat then this is not very good for our digestion system as well after that what happens is that
first of all we have a sore teeth and all that then after that stomach gets upset and then other symptoms are also there But We Just Keep Feeding On Meat So Instead We Allah Asks Us To Everything Eat What Ever You Want Drink What Ever You Want But In Moderation So Moderation Is Better So Again This Is Also A Message For Public Awareness That Eat You Can Save Your Meat For Further Days You Don’t Have to Consume the Whole Goat and Whole Dumba and Whole Cow within a Week and So and One This is the One Practice I
Want to Spread to You and Second Practice is That I Have Seen by Mylfdom America So I Ask Most of The Time The People Who Work With Me My Maids I Ask Them That You Can Save Your Meat Here Because I Don’t Have A Lot Of Meat At My Place So They Put Their Shares Over There So It’s Very Had To Share That Whatever They Get From the game and all that they get a share of meat It’s full of [ __ ] I came from and the meat not even dogs and cats want to eat so we give it to them in the name of Allah and our faces are
full of Lean meat for the barbie queue parties and tikka party and all that. This is another message I want to give at the Eid al-Adha so don’t do that and the biggest message which is there is that I do n’t remember Punjabi very much. Understand Punjabi, girl is not remembered. I like his very beautiful one Baba Farid Shakar Ganj Shakar Shakarganj Are you familiar with mum, he was a Sufi poet, he was a scholar, he was a philosopher, he was a Sufi poet, he said one very good thing, I wish I remember it. I hope he said a
very good thing that if you put a knife on an animal then nothing happened. The animal had a nafs within itself, our Nafs is our own self. If you did not put a knife on it then nothing happened and no sacrifice was made. The Biggest Vani Kill Your Nafs Ego So I like it very much Maybe I do n’t remember Satly Thank you [Music] You Assalam Welcome Miss My name is Jad Mansoor My question is How do you think the local communities can better manage waste during Eid al-Adha and to Reduce Land Pollution Welcome Salam JD Yes Very Very
Valid Question Like I Told You That Organize And You Will Find Lot Of People Who Are Good In Leadership Skills And Are Good In Organizing Skills Among You And Mashallah You Are The You Are The Young Ones The Best part of the life, the best time is the time of youth and you can bring definitely you can bring a change my generation did not do anything but I am very hope full from you guys to the fate of every person Sitara Wright Iqbal Already Say That’s So What You Can Do Ya Can Form Some Small Teams Organizations Take Locally And Then
You Know Like Manage The Things That Where We Will Slaughter The Animal And For That In Already Like Said By Chuna Chuna Already Buy gravel, get some things like this to cover up the blood because it’s very respectable like you are just you know like draw the blood and then the blood is still there and causing us like I have mentioned before I am sure that many diseases will also spread due to this and not even an element of respect is visible because nobody does it around the world not only Pakistanis and Indians. We are left
with this old fashion ritual because again we are inferior animals and Then we feel that we are very like macho man and something, so just do the practices I told you already, show a little element of respect and dig a hole, cover the blood and make communities small Within your community, make committees, make some groups of people who are just managing everyone, work collectively, don’t work individually, make a team and people have a lot of leadership skills, then you will find the better leaders, future
leaders, then try to do it collectively. Instead of doing individual thank you thank you miss for your insight there is a moment a way to reduce land pollution in Pakistan Proper waste management and community development are crucial to address this issue we need public awareness better technology stronger regulation and community engagement this step will Help Ensure a Clear Environment for Future Generations We Appreciate.
