In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. A massive wildfire erupted in the suburbs of  Los Angeles on January 8, 2025 , causing widespread devastation and forcing residents, including many Hollywood celebrities, to flee their homes in panic. The fire consumed approximately 3,000 acres (1,200 hectares) in the affluent Pacific Palisades area, nestled within the Santa Monica Mountains. Fueled by hurricane-force winds, the blaze grew rapidly and left an  apocalyptic  scene of charred trees and abandoned homes. The firefighters have exausted themselves but fire is marching like a fierce army.   Scientific  Reasons Behind the Incident Dry Climate and Drought Conditions Los Angeles, located in Southern California, is known for its semi-arid Mediterranean climate, characterized by dry summers and mild winters. Prolonged droughts in recent years have led to extremely dry vegetation, creating a tinderbox environment highly susceptible to wildfires. T...

In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. 1. Introduction Pakistan is home to a variety of natural and man-made lakes spread across its diverse geography — from the snow-fed basins of Gilgit-Baltistan to the arid plains of Sindh. Lakes in Pakistan serve ecological, hydrological, economic, and recreational purposes. Interactive Map of Major Lakes in Pakistan + −  Leaflet   |  © OpenStreetMap contributors 2. Classification of Lakes in Pakistan A. Based on Origin Glacial/Alpine Lakes  – Found in the high-altitude regions, formed by glacier melt (e.g., Saif-ul-Malook). Tectonic Lakes  – Created due to tectonic activity (e.g., Hanna Lake). Oxbow/Depression Lakes  – Formed in river floodplains (e.g., Manchar Lake). Artificial/Reservoirs  – Created for dams or irrigation (e.g., Rawal Lake, Hub Lake). B. Based on Region Gilgit-Baltistan & Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (North)  – Mostly alpine/glacial lakes. Punjab  – Artificial and some...

In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. Abstract:  Artificial Intelligence  (AI) is widely regarded as a transformative technology with the potential to revolutionize industries and improve global efficiency. However, this paper explores the lesser-discussed environmental impact of AI, particularly its contribution to climate change. Through a multidisciplinary lens, this research examines how increased computational demands, energy consumption, and hardware production associated with AI exacerbate global greenhouse gas emissions. The paper also evaluates potential solutions, such as green AI, improved data center efficiency, and policy regulations, and presents a call to balance technological progress with environmental responsibility. 1. Introduction  The development and deployment of Artificial Intelligence (AI) have been hailed as milestones in technological progress. From enhancing healthcare diagnostics to revolutionizing finance and education...
