جب آپ پھل کھاتے ہیں تو بیجوں کو ردی کی ٹوکری میں نہ پھینکیں، انہیں خشک کریں، ایک تھیلے میں ڈالیں اور اپنی گاڑی میں رکھ دیں ۔
جب آپ سڑک پر ہوں تو انہیں کھڑکی سے باہر ان جگہوں پر پھینک دیں جہاں درخت نہیں ہیں۔ قدرت ان کا خیال رکھے گی۔ 🌱
تھائی لینڈ اور ملائیشیا جیسے ایشیائی ممالک میں، وہ برسوں سے اس پر عمل کر رہے ہیں اور اب ان کے پاس ہر جگہ پھل ہیں۔ 🍐🍒🍑 🍐🍒🍑
تو آئیے ہم اپنے سرزمین پاکستان پر بیج پھینکیں، کوڑے دان میں نہیں۔ ❤️🌳🇵🇰
