  • L'environnement au Pakistan est l'environnement (ensemble des éléments - biotiques ou abiotiques - qui entourent un individu ou une espèce et dont certains contribuent directement à subvenir à ses besoins) du pays Pakistan, pays d'Asie. Le Pakistan est le 6e pays le plus peuplé au monde, avec 194 098 063 habitants en 2016. La population exerce de ce fait une pression importante sur les milieux et les ressources, avec une pression par habitant qui reste faible en comparaison d'autres pays plus développés. Les problématiques liés à la pollution de l'air, de l'eau, et aux métaux lourds sont parmi les plus importantes au monde. (fr)
