Tree plantation indispensable to reduce carbon emission: Experts

RAJSHAHI, Sept 01 (BSS): Wide-ranging tree plantation can be the best way of reducing carbon emission at a substantial level and that is very important to protect ecological balance in the dried region.
There is no alternative to creating more forest coverage to address the adverse impacts of climate change caused by global warming.
