Environmental Pollution In Bangladesh

October 02, 2025, Outskirts of Dhaka, Bangladesh: Birds swarm over a massive dumpyard on the outskirts of Dhaka, where mountains of waste and heavy machinery dominate the landscape. The landfill, a major source of environmental pollution, threatens nearby habitats and forces birds to forage dangerously close to toxic waste. To free up space, the city authorities often resort to burning solid waste, according to garbage collectors, releasing carbon dioxide (CO₂), nitrogen compounds, ammonia, sulfides, and other hazardous gases into the air, not to mention the foul smell that envelops an area of at least three-square kilometres. Environmental experts warn that CH₄ emissions significantly contribute to global warming by trapping atmospheric heat. Furthermore, the black smoke produced from burning waste exacerbates air pollution, posing serious health risks to residents. Photo by Suvra Kanti Das/ABACAPRESS.COM

Construction Site of An Offshore Photovoltaic Power Plant - China

A drone photo taken on September 18, 2025 shows the construction site of an offshore photovoltaic power plant in Changli County, north China's Hebei Province. At present, a pilot offshore photovoltaic demonstration project of Hebei Province, with a designed installed capacity of 1.8 million kilowatts, is being advanced steadily at the sea area of Changli County. Upon completion, it is expected to generate about 2.7 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity annually, saving 840,000 tonnes of standard coal and reducing 2.16 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions each year.
