It is such an initiative, which is not just a one day event rather a social awareness campaign to enlighten everyone to take the responsibility to climate change. In Dhaka youth join this movement by arranging a cycle rally and public candle light. In this movement, an Australian environmentalist and volunteer Mr. Patrick Kirkby has joined in Dhaka this year.
