UNB, Dhaka

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina yesterday urged the people to plant trees to protect Bangladesh from the adverse impacts of climate change.

“I would like to urge all to save the environment because it is our duty to offset the impacts of climate change in Bangladesh,” she said after planting three saplings on the Gono Bhaban premises to mark World Environment Day 2023.

She also inaugurated the Environment Fair-2023, National Tree Plantation Campaign and Tree Fair-2023.

The PM said they have been implementing the tree plantation programme on a massive scale so that Bangladesh would be more beautiful and developed.
