Kashmir’s stunning landscapes, with their verdant forests, sparkling lakes, and snow-capped mountains, are not only a tourist magnet but a critical part of the region’s ecosystem. However, over the years, environmental challenges like deforestation, pollution, and climate change have threatened its delicate balance. The construction of roads, hotels, and infrastructure for tourism has led to significant environmental degradation. To combat this, local environmental organizations and the government have stepped up, initiating reforestation projects, waste management programs, and promoting eco-friendly tourism. As the region faces increasing environmental challenges, the focus is now on finding sustainable solutions to protect Kashmir’s natural beauty for future generations.
