The deputy commissioner of Chattogram has urged building a risk-free environment for the next generation, highlighting jute as a potential key element of an eco-friendly future.

Jute's role in environmental protection

The deputy commissioner said jute is a natural, environmentally friendly fibre. As an alternative to plastic and synthetic materials, jute and jute-based products can reduce pressure on the environment. He stressed that advancing the jute industry is essential to achieving sustainable development goals.

Responsibility towards the next generation

Emphasising the need to leave a safe and habitable environment for future generations, he said effective steps must be taken now to protect the environment. Increasing the use of natural materials like jute could be an effective path in this regard.

Call for local initiatives

The deputy commissioner advised increasing jute cultivation and the use of jute products at the local level. He believes this will not only protect the environment but also bring economic benefits to the country.
