Dhaka's pollution – getting out of control

Dhaka is one of the most densely populated and polluted cities of the world. Air, water, soil, sound, light etc. every kind of pollution can be found in Dhaka. These various kinds of pollution cause all kinds of health hazards – cancer, lung disease, deafness and so on. It's high time we all took necessary measures to reduce the harmful effects of environmental pollution to save the present and future generation. Appropriate policy of environment and health and its proper implementation can be helpful in this perspective.
