＜Bangladesh＞
Let Your Habit be Environment Friendly!
In Bangladesh, for the primary school students the Government has initiated “School Feeding Programme”. Under this programme every students under class 5 get one packet of biscuit if they attend the school. There is evidence that many students like to go to the school just for this packet biscuit. This is truly an attractive programme for the students, especially to the students from poor family. But it is observed that, after eating the biscuits the poly packet of the biscuits are not dumped properly at particular places instead the students throw it here and there, starting from the school compound to the nearby fields and roads and if they bring the packet to the home they throw the packet mostly outside the home.
These poly packets not only make the environment untidy but also can cause serious soil pollution in long run. The farmers working in the field nearby the primary schools often complain about the packets that are spread over the field, because they know these packets will decrease the crop productivity of soil and it is known to all that polythene packets are not decomposable and therefore if they are dispersed on soil the microbial activity decreases and the plant cannot extend their root beyond the polythene and hence the growth and productivity decreases. So, the students need to be aware of it and the school teachers should teach the students about the hazardous effect of polythene and also teach them about proper dumping of the packets. Besides these students, all people need to learn about the environment and about some basic cleanliness strategies.
“The Cleaning Campaign 2014” an initiation of AAEE and SWITCH is going to begin from November 14, 2014 with the aim of creating awareness among students to keep their environment clean and tidy and wish to spread the message of clean and green environment to the mass people through providing a base of creating inter personal communication and exchange.
