On 28 July 2026, the Life, Nature and Environment Research Club (LINERC), University of Rajshahi<\/strong>, launched a new environmental initiative on the Rajshahi University campus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The programme was organized on the occasion of World Nature Conservation Day 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nature is the foundation of our existence. A healthy environment, clean water bodies, and protected biodiversity are essential for a sustainable future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The programme was titled \u201cSustainable Parthenium Eradication & Water Bodies Cleaning Program.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parthenium can affect agricultural land and natural plant communities. It can also threaten local biodiversity. The plant is also known to cause allergic reactions and other health problems in people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first activity was carried out around the Juberi Field area<\/strong> of Rajshahi University. LINERC members worked to remove Parthenium hysterophorus<\/strong>, a harmful invasive weed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The programme also focused on cleaning campus water bodies. Plastic and other waste were removed from the surrounding areas. Such waste can pollute water and damage aquatic habitats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The programme was attended by Professor Dr. Sabrina Naz<\/strong>, Chairman of the Department of Botany, University of Rajshahi, and Chief Patron of LINERC. Her presence and guidance encouraged the members and strengthened the initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The programme is not intended to be a one-day activity. LINERC plans to continue the work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regular removal of invasive plants and cleaning of water bodies can help create a healthier campus environment. It can also support biodiversity and increase environmental awareness among students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LINERC believes that protecting nature is a continuous responsibility. Small actions can create meaningful change when people work together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The club hopes to make Rajshahi University campus greener, cleaner, and more environmentally friendly through continued activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For nature. For biodiversity. For a sustainable future.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
