On World Heritage Day, various cultural events and activities are organised in Bangladesh to promote the country’s heritage and raise awareness about the importance of preserving it. Schools and universities also participate in these activities to educate the younger generation about the country’s rich cultural heritage and the need to preserve it for future generations.
বাংলাদেশে যানজট ও সড়ক দুর্ঘটনার পর এবার বিস্ফোরণ ও অগ্নিকাণ্ড ক্রমাগত মারাত্মক আকার ধারণ করছে। প্রতিবছরই এ ধরনের অগ্নিকাণ্ড কেড়ে নিচ্ছে অসংখ্য মূল্যবান প্রাণ, ক্ষতিগ্রস্ত হচ্ছে অজস্র মানুষ এবং নষ্ট হচ্ছে বিপুল পরিমাণ সম্পদ। দেশে অগ্নিকাণ্ডের ঘটনার কারণগুলোর মধ্যে উল্লেখযোগ্য কিছু কারণ হলো দুর্বল ভবন নির্মাণ, অগ্নি নিরাপত্তার শিথিল নিয়ম এবং অতিরিক্ত ভিড়।
In general terms, climate change does not introduce many additional or unanticipated risks but it will intensify some existing relationships between the environment and human wellbeing, making human life and livelihood more difficult and dangerous than they are now. Only a few examples of extreme weather occurrences include droughts, flooding, waterlogging, cyclones and tsunamis, tornadoes, thunderstorms, river/coastal erosion, landslides, salty water intrusion, hailstorms and other natural disasters. These natural disasters have the potential to have profound effects on socioeconomic conditions, agricultural output, and human and animal health.
The Montreal Protocol started as a global commitment to protect the ozone layer and is now one of the most effective environmental agreements ever. The Protocol was consented in 1987 as part of the Vienna Convention on Protection of The Ozone Layer, and the UN General Assembly declared September 16th the International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer in 1994. Bangladesh has been recognising the day since 1990 following the treaty’s signing in the same year. The Kigali Amendment will make the Montreal Protocol an even more effective tool in the fight against global warming. The impact of the Kigali Amendment will avoid up to 0.5 °C increase in global temperature by the end of the century.
What is your aim in life? To such a question, school children easily answer to become doctors, engineers, lawyers, teachers, bankers or businessmen. But in today’s era of global warming, the mindset of working to protect the environment or thinking about issues like climate change does not move much in the minds of our students. Well, have we ever thought deeply about what are the limitations that lie ahead in realising our life goals? We think and believe that social or economic issues are our biggest limitations. But the reality is that the environmental degradation of the present world and the level of pollution in the developing countries are one of the main obstacles to reaching our goal. We may not think much that one of the causes of social and economic degradation is today’s environmental pollution.
