Seminar at Rajshahi University Highlights Urgency of Tackling Plastic Pollution

Experts at Rajshahi University warned that plastic waste threatens all life on Earth during a special meeting. Scientists said the problem harms animals, plants and people around the world. The university's Institute of Environmental Sciences hosted the event for World Environment Day 2025. This year's focus centers on stopping plastic pollution everywhere. Leaders from the school spoke about urgent steps needed to fix the crisis.

Professor Khondoker Enamul Haque explained how plastic damages nature and wildlife. He said people must learn more about protecting the planet from harm. Climate change already hurts the environment through many different ways. Government groups and volunteers need to work together on solutions. He wants rewards for companies that help reduce forest cutting and save animals.

Professor Aminuzzaman Saleh Reza studies how plastic ruins rivers and lakes. Clean water depends on removing plastic trash from these places. Professor Redwanur Rahman sees illegal dumping of solid waste into the Padma River. Construction materials and plastic items pile up along the riverbank daily. Professor Sabrina Naz agrees that plastic bags cause the worst damage to waterways.

The Padma River faces serious threats from people who dump garbage illegally. Pollution and land grabbing will hurt families who depend on the river for work. Plastic campaigns have not worked well enough to stop the problem. Students marched across campus before the meeting started. The parade began at the main office building and ended at the discussion hall.
