Pollution in Dhaka City
Sujon Ahmed, Dhaka, 05 April: Pollution has been a great problem in Dhaka city. Different kinds of pollution such as air pollution, water pollution, sound pollution, odour pollution have become very acute in this city. Population explosion, unplanned industrialization, and urbanization are mainly responsible for this pollution.
Water pollution is creating different types of waterborne diseases. It is also creating scarcity of drinking water. On the other hand, air pollution has become very serious here nowadays. Besides creating air borne diseases, it is suffocating us. A lot of vehicles plying on the roads in Dhaka city are emitting black smoke full of carbon monoxide, lead, and other unburned chemical particles of petrol and diesel.
Some manufacturing industries like rubber, chemical, steel are located in Tejgaon Industrial Area, the central part of Dhaka city. As a result, the evening becomes dark due to smoke and dust that make a thick layer of smoke. In spite of taking various measures to stop pollution in the city, the pollution level in Dhaka City is still higher than that of any other Asian city.
It is unfortunate but true that we do not have sufficient lakes in the city to control environmental pollution. People should be made aware of adverse effects of pollution in Dhaka city so that they can cooperate with the government to make Dhaka city clean, pollution free and inhabitable.
