I am a Grade 12 student at Cadet College HasanAbdal, Pakistan, with a
strong interest in environmental science, water sustainability, and community impact. Having
spent five years in the college’s boarding environment, I developed a deep connection to the
natural spaces surrounding the campus and became increasingly aware of the environmental
challenges affecting them.
My research journey began with a simple question: “Why?” Struck by the severe
deterioration of a campus lake that senior cadets once cherished for swimming, I was
compelled to understand this transformation. This curiosity drove me to investigate the specific effects of pollution on local water quality, aquatic ecosystems, and public health.
