Deforestation and ecological imbalance
Random felling of trees by people is wiping the green off the landscape in Bangladesh. Apart from the forestation activities by our forest department we put either very little effort or none at all to help protect our environment. What we have been doing in this regard is rather appalling -- we are chopping down trees arbitrarily. We do it for our petty interest undermining the fact that this act does create awesome imbalance in nature. Unfortunately, we do not appear to be cautious about the fact that we have to plant trees for a better and healthy environment. Ecological imbalance is taking a chilling shape across the globe. It is quite frightening and people of Bangladesh ought to be more aware and act accordingly.
The government and the NGOs should work together to motivate people in general to a better understanding in this regard.
