Bangladesh has been famous for its greenery since ancient times due to its climate and soil quality. And this ceremony was not only limited to the number of trees, but also the variety of species was rich. Experts believe that in order to maintain the ecological balance, it is essential to have forest cover in 25% of the area of a country. But compared to the area of Bangladesh, the amount of forested area is only 7.7 percent and 14 percent of the land area.
