Abstract

The increasing locusts plague in Pakistan has brought negative impacts on local bio-environment and economy. The plague is expanding toward the nearby nation, if we do not put a stop in it, the plague will destroy the agricultural products in Pakistan, which will lead to a more serious bird declination and deforestation. Besides, a self-reinforcing vicious circle will form, which not only destroy local economy and bio-environment but also threatening the well-being of all nations nearby. Based on data analysis and review of scientific journals on similar fields, the cause of the locusts plague in Pakistan was narrowed to three major aspects: the deforestation resulted from the acid rain, the decline of bird community consequent upon the avian influenza, and the regional temperature increase on account of the wood burning and increasing carbon emission. Therefore, this research will reveal the causes and solutions to the locusts plague in Pakistan and provided people with the valuable experience to prevent it from happening again.
