According to the Global Climate Risk Index, Pakistan is fifth most vulnerable nation in world climate change. The growing phenomena of change and global warming have increased on a worldwide level. To combat effects change, transition sustainable transportation system essential. Developed countries evaluated costs benefits such transition. However, developing like rarely investigated this matter thoroughly. So, context, paper case study analyzing transport sector Punjab-Pakistan achieve some targets for transportation. analysis carried out by using energy model Low Emission Analysis Platform (LEAP) from 2019 2050. Three scenarios are made, i.e., Business as Usual Scenario (BAUS) following current policies, Efficient Combustion (ECS), Electrical Vehicle (EVS) figure environmental social costs. It concluded that 2050, ECS EVS will reduce carbon dioxide emissions 21.6 18.5 million metric tons equivalent, compared Business-as-Usual Scenario. These savings terms cost be $ 157.1 134.6 Electric This research may help find suitable policy decisions at provincial level enhance sustainability increasing share electric vehicles Punjab, results replicated whole country South Asia.

The management of groundwater systems is essential for nations that rely on as the principal source communal water supply (e.g., Mohmand District Pakistan). work employed Remote Sensing and GIS datasets to ascertain recharge zones (GWRZ) in Pakistan. Subsequently, a sensitivity analysis was conducted examine impact geology hydrologic factors variability GWRZ. GWRZ determined by employing weighted overlay thematic maps derived from about drainage density, slope, geology, rainfall, lineament land use/land cover, soil types. use multi-criteria decision (MCDA) involves utilization multi-influencing factor (MIF) analytical hierarchy procedure (AHP) allocate weights selected influencing factors. MIF data found very high spanned 1.20%, covered 40.44%, moderate 50.81%, low 7.54%. In comparison, AHP technique results suggest 1.81% whole area high, 33.26 55.01% moderate, 9.92% has potential. geospatial-assisted approach helps increase conceptual knowledge resources evaluate possible zones.
