'Tree Matin'- An icon for Green Living |
|---|
|
His name is Matin. But everyone calls him 'Tree Matin'. Let's know the reason of his name!!
Matin is a simple person dwelling in Dhaka. But he has immense affection towards environment. He is a nature lover. His love towards nature made him take some initiatives that may be small but these small initiatives can come up as a turning point for today's inferior nature. Everyday he along with his van stands on a street named Karwan Bazar road. There he keeps talking about the importance of living green through a mike and inspiring people to take the path of green. He creates a attractive stature by annexing some plastic green plants on his head. His van is full of plants so that if anyone wants to buy he can supply it immediately. One day a big tree was uprooted in an area of Dhaka. Matin, seeing this, got permission from the Environment Department of Government an planted two plants on that area. He urges people to start gardening from home. Thus we will be able to make a green city. Now he dreams to make Gulshan Lake a floating nursery which is situated at gulshan in Dhaka. So we see that he is not doing any huge thing for environment. Rather he started with little efforts. If all of us get into the field to save the environment from our respective position then all the small efforts will bring about a revolutionary change in the environment. If anyone wants to give financial help to him so that he can enlarge his area of working for environment then you can contact with me. I heard about him from my friend. Soon I'll meet him and upload a picture of him.

Hello Nihan! Thanks for your post:) I totally agree with your perspective that 'all the small efforts will bring about a revolutionary change in the environment'.!
I think it is really important to keep that phrase in mind especially when someone starts doing something for our environment.
I'm looking forward to seeing his picture on your next post!

Nihan, interesting report! It is interesting that the man is called 'Tree Matin'. If you get to meet him, could you do an interview about his personal stories, why he is doing these acts? I think the story of 'Tree Matin' can draw huge attentions to Bangladesh! I look forward to more stories on 'Tree Matin'.

No action is small in the direction of saving or conserving environment. He is influencing people to plant trees, he is promoting the significance of trees by his own way. Great man and indeed an admirable environmentalist. Good pick, Nihan. Thanks for sharing.
