Who is responsible for taking care of the earth?

Business fundamentals and economics are associated with each other and are often difficult to split, regardless of which ‘set of mind’ attempts to do so. Often, the green message gets lost in the smog of class discrimination. A lower-working class is raised and taught about their lack of hope or be proud of who and what they are, are actually both examples of bad parenting. It is a negative quality to have pride in being uneducated, living in poverty and being ignored by the economic trend.

People should always have pride in their potential and capacity. The thirst of knowledge for a child from the lower class community would be abundant if a particular message was sent to them. Unfortunately this is not the scenario; they do not have the willingness to know about the world.

Carrying out a psychological assessment to understand the impact of campaigns would be really beneficial. A figurative bitter citizen hates his or her daily routine by default, which also includes poor working condition, pay and nonetheless – less than ideal life at home. The only way he/she justifies the situation is by thinking of the position as being a victim where efforts are put everyday without getting anything in return. These people are also concerned with accessible pleasures and quick fixes rather than being concerned about how to keep the earth green. These people do not have any desire to change where building with pollution and materials that damage the environment, and littering is rather common.

The lower working class is more responsible for the awful contamination state, lack of education about air pollution, ozone layer and recycling. Arguably, much of the planet’s suffering would come to a standstill if this class of people could be taught about the future and how much power they had to change the world and the earth in particular.

There are advertisements at the subway tunnels, encouraging kids to recycle. However, only a little humaneness is given to where these kids come from. As such, the advertisements at the subway tunnels turn out to be a lost cause. This is because the kids in many cases can not relate with the message.

Who would benefit if the biologically and environmentally unfriendly products are not produced and sold anymore? The answer is: probably both the upper class and the lower class. The world economy is strongly based on the sale of these items and the sales are booming at the moment. The focus should be not on what lower classes buy, rather on what they care about.

The upper class does not have any interest in the lower class situation, while the lower class does not have any interest in the goals and objectives of the upper class people. Fair enough. There would be no nation if there were no lower working class as they are the working gear of a nation, while the governing authority is held by the upper class people. What it requires is the state of mind of both the classes. The state of mind should tell them that they both are responsible for taking care of the earth.

Dhaka in the 1950s and 1960s

In the mid 1950s, Dhaka, known as ‘Dacca’ at that time, was just a small provincial town with about 3,00,000 inhabitants. Dhanmondi at that time just started to grow; Maulvi Abdus Sobhan's family had some habitation in Sobhanbagh, Dhaka Stadium was being constructed to host cricket matches and New Market was starting to become a busy shopping area. Dhaka residents loved cinema since the time it was introduced. Baliadi Siddiki family owned Nishat Cinema Hall and held a mega event when the film ‘Aan’ by Mehboob Khan was released in 1952. Elephants were used by the hall owner to distribute leaflets and to spray colour water. There was another prominent hall named Britannia near Rex Restaurant at Gulistan but was closed down in the late 1950s. Gulistan Cinema Hall, city’s first modernity landmark, came up in 1952. Amber, started with Raj Kapoor and Nargis, was the first film the hall showed. Mukul which later became 'Azad 'used to show Bengali films from Kolkat...

সুন্দর পশু-পাখি, সুন্দর গাছ আর সুন্দর সুন্দর জঙ্গল নিয়ে সুন্দরবন

...প্রাকৃতিক দুর্যোগের সময় এদেশের মানুষের পক্ষ হয়ে বর্ম হিসেবে দাড়িয়ে যাওয়া সুন্দরবনের সাথে বেশীর ভাগ মানুষের প্রথম পরিচয় হয় বাংলা ১ম পত্রের গদ্য বইয়ে অথবা বাংলা ২য় পত্রের রচনায়। সুন্দরবন - এর আক্ষরিক অর্থ 'সুন্দর জঙ্গল' অথবা 'সুন্দর বনভূমি' কিন্তু নামকরণ হয়েছিল 'সুন্দরী গাছ' থেকে যা এখানে প্রচুর পরিমানে জন্মে। তবে যেহেতু স্থানীয় আদিবাসীরা অনেক আগে থেকে বনটিকে ‘চন্দ্র-বান্ধে’ নামে ডাকতো তাই হতে পারে ‘চন্দ্র-বান্ধে’ নামটি কালের পরিক্রমায় ‘সুন্দরবন’ হয়ে গেছে। বঙ্গোপসাগরের কোল ঘেষে অবস্থিত এই বনের বাঘ ‘রয়েল বেঙ্গল টাইগার’ নামে পরিচিত যদিও সংখ্যায় এখন এ প্রাণী ক্রমনিম্নগামী। সুন্দরবন সমুদ্র উপকূলবর্তী এলাকায় অবস্থিত হবার কারনে এখানকার পানি নোনতা এবং এই লবণাক্ততার কারণে বাঘ অস্বস্তিকর অবস্থায় থাকে যা তাদের বেশ আগ্রাসী করে তোলে তাই  মাছ ও মধু সংগ্রহকারী মানুষদের উপর সুযোগ পেলে তারা ঝাপিয়ে পরে। ১৭৫৭ সালে পুরো বাংলার ইজারা নেয় বৃটিশ ইস্ট ইন্ডিয়া কোম্পানি যার মধ্যে সুন্দরবনও ছিল। এই বনের গুরুত্ব বুঝতে পেরে ইস্ট ইন্ডিয়া কোম্পানি একটা মানচিত্র তৈরি করে সেইসময়...

Comparing current Dhaka with its past

...In late 1950s, the Adamjee group of Industries, which was one of the most significant companies in the country of that time, built an extremely modern air conditioned office-complex in Motijheel - Dilkusha area and named it Adamji Court Building. It was the first building in the city with a lift installed. The US government rented a floor in the building and housed their consular office. Hotel Purbani, located at 1 Dilkusha Commercial Area, was build in 1964 and became the most prominent hotel of that time. S.A.Sobhan, the then Additional Chief Secretary of the government and a silent advisor of Awami League in the later years, initiated the venture. Shortly A Sattar, owner of a 7-up bottling factory, joined the project. Name of the hotel was given by Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman as owners were quite close to him. Elites of  the city and foreigners found the hotel a good place to be. The buffet lunch at one of the restaurants of the hotel were offered at Rs. (Pak...
