Environment, Forest and Climate Change Minister Saber Hossain Chowdhury said every citizen should plant one fruit, timber and medicinal tree to improve the quality of life.
“By planting trees collectively, we will be able to build a greener, healthier and more sustainable & resilient environment,” he added.
Saber said this on Sunday in his speech while launching the “One Tree4Mother” campaign in Bangladesh by planting a Neem tree at the Indian Embassy in Dhaka. High Commissioner of India to Bangladesh Pranay Kumar Verma was also present there.
Minister Chowdhury highlighted that the “One Tree4Mother” campaign embodies our shared commitment to preserving and nurturing the environment for future generations and is a testament to the enduring friendship and cooperation between Bangladesh and India.
Together, we can create a more sustainable future, combat climate change, and leave a lasting legacy for our children and grandchildren.
The environment minister said this Campaign fosters a culture of environmental stewardship and responsibility. “Everyone has a role in safeguarding our planet by inspiring communities to come together to plant, nurture, and protect trees that, in turn, protect us,” he added.
