Control the use of plastic
Walking down any street in Dhaka, you'll see heaps of used plastic lying along the roadside. Drains and manholes are covered in plastic. The canals are filled with it. Rivers surrounding Dhaka — Buriganga, Turag, Shitalakshya, Balu, Dhaleshwari — all have piles of plastic waste accumulating. This scene is replicated across the country. Even agricultural lands in remote areas are blanketed in plastic. People once used to grow vegetables around their homes; in many villages, this is no longer possible as the soil is now covered with plastic.
