DESPITE all sluggishness and odds across the globe, including U-turn from Donald Trump and couple of others, under the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), 195 member states can still be rescued from runaway climate
Against the backdrop of the ever-increasing rate of deforestation and encroachment in almost every country in the world including Bangladesh, every year since 2012, March 21 has been celebrated as International Day of Forests.
