In a Facebook post on Sunday night (October 5), he pledged to plant 250 million trees, restore rivers, transform waste into resources, modernize agriculture, and expand investment in renewable energy. He also highlighted the importance of developing coastal economies to empower youth and reduce Dhaka-centric growth by promoting balanced urbanization across regions. Emphasizing housing as a fundamental human right, he underscored that environmental stability is essential for national prosperity. On World Habitat Day, Rahman reaffirmed BNP’s 31-point plan as a roadmap for solving national challenges, particularly focusing on climate protection and planned urban decentralization. He urged collective effort to safeguard the nation’s environment and future.
