ALERT and ALERT! EVERYWHERE.
A massive wave of heat is creating big issues in Bangladesh nowadays. Comparing Bangladesh by climate changes in climate, we can clearly figure out a big difference from a few years record. We aren’t concerned much on this matter. The temperature is rising more day by day.
This unexpected change in weather has changed many things in Bangladesh like education,food production,professional jobs,work and economy. People of Bangladesh need to study more on this fact. If we don’t pay proper attention to this serious matter, this will throw us away in more danger.
Effect on food production:
A big amount of food in Bangladesh comes from its own motherland. But excess heat on soil is killing the ability for it to grow crops. It’s bringing drought to the land.
Health versus the heatwave:
In recent times,people especially the elderly are seems dying because of the heat.
Heatstroke,Tension,Anxiety,Mental illness and so many health issues are reportedly growing. Physical and mental breakdowns are now becoming a normal and renowned issue.
From children to old aged people are becoming victims of it. One of the biggest reasons for the issue is unfavorable weather.
Heatwave is even cursing us economically. How so?
General population of our country usually works more at the field or roads rather than at the office. Not every office is highly built here. As a result, it is creating a big monotony for workers to work properly in such an atmosphere. Eventually, this is bringing a big loss in any type of project.
Recently, it affected in educational sector too.
When the heat crossed the limit and temperature went high,the government had to declare closing the academic branches thinking about student’s safety. But this created a big disadvantage for students after missing lectures.
Have we ever wondered why the wave of the heat is growing rapidly?
There are so many different but common causes.
Let’s find out the reason behind it.
Some of the reason for heatwave:
• Not having enough knowledge about heatwaves.
• Cutting down trees.
• Excessive uses of machines.
Can clearly see,We humans are somehow responsible for this matter. We are cutting down trees to fulfill our needs and not planting same amount of trees in return.
It’s on our hands to protect ourselves and our beloved motherland. It’s never impossible for us to work on it and change the climate as we need.
People of Bangladesh are suffering a lot because of the heatwave.We can change it by working on it together. Not one person but each should talk about the fact and raise a strong voice from their own side.
But the question is how can we?
Some little changes and a few steps are required for that. We can start with both public and personal changes to normalize our weather.
Public steps:
• Planting trees as much as possible.
• Creating community and spreading awareness among society.
• Arranging of water tape beside the road.
Personal steps:
• Using alternatives for heat spreading devices or engines.
• Keeping a water bottle while going out.
• Keeping an umbrella.
• Looking after elderly and children at home.
By promoting all these ,
Let’s protect our world with some little and effective steps. The native land is like our home and all the creation here is like our family members. We all should together come forward to protect this home and family in any situation.
Trees to mammals,all the creation of the planet should live healthy.
Indeed,Every creation is valued,
