  6. Cox’s Bazar, Longest Sea Beach

  7. Sundarbans Largest Mangrove Forests

  8. Man-eating Royal Bengal Tiger, Crocodile & Spotted Deer of Sundarbans

  9. Natural beauty of Sundarbans and Sundarbans after Sidr 2007

  10. Tropical Cyclones Affected Coastal Zones

  11. Damages of lives, structures & Mangroves during Bangladesh cyclone 1991, Bhola Cyclone 1970 & Cyclone Sidr 2007

  12. Damage of Crops & Structures in SidrFleeing people during Aila-2009

  13. Effect of Sidr Nov 25, 2007

  15. The Bay of Bengal Enclosed Sea

  16. Discharge of Effluents to Rivers

  17. Discharge of Industrial Effluents to Rivers

  18. Hazards of Ship-breaking Industries

  19. Chemical Effluents from Shrimp Hatchery

  20. Chemical Effluent from Shrimp Hatchery

  21. Hill-cutting and Shrimp hatcheries eroding the beach

  31. Manmade Freshwater Reservoir in Coastal Zone

  32. Cyclone Shelter cum Schools in Coastal Zone

  33. Conclusion and Recommendations • Coastal zone has great importance to protect the shoreline of the Bay • Northern part is resourceful & biodiversity rich, very fragile & prone to pollution • Industries, agriculture & ports are major sources • Ship breaking, shrimp culture are great threat • Destruction of mangroves increasing vulnerability

  34. Conclusion and Recommendations • CHT plays important role in coastline management • Dams destroying the hill forests & water-flows • Indiscriminate use of Chemicals and upstream in agriculture destroying perennial streams Causing marine & terrestrial biodiversity loss • Hill cutting, shrimp hatchery and unplanned structures damaging Cox’s Bazar sea beach

  35. Conclusion and Recommendations • Pollution from ship-breaking, ports & shrimp culture should be stopped • Deforestation, hill-cutting, over-fishing unplanned construction must be controlled • Defense systems against cyclones, tidal surges, erosion should be built up

  36. Thank You
