About this Petition

The Crisis

The Sundarbans, the world's largest mangrove forest and UNESCO World Heritage Site, faces severe threats from industrial pollution. Chemical waste from upstream factories is devastating this irreplaceable ecosystem.

Current Situation

  • Over 200 factories discharge untreated waste into rivers flowing into Sundarbans
  • Marine life populations have declined by 40% in the last decade
  • Local fishing communities have lost their livelihoods
  • The Royal Bengal Tiger population is under severe stress

Our Demands

  1. Immediate closure of polluting industries until proper treatment facilities are installed
  2. Strict enforcement of environmental regulations
  3. Creation of a Sundarbans Protection Fund from industrial penalties
  4. Compensation for affected fishing communities
  5. International monitoring of water quality

Join Us

The Sundarbans is not just Bangladesh's heritage—it's a global treasure. Sign to protect it for future generations.
