Amid the endless waves of Cox’s Bazar’s azure sea, where the sun casts its golden rays each day, walks a determined woman—Zubaida Begum. Her mission is unwavering: keeping the beach clean.
She gathers plastic bottles, paper, and litter scattered along the shore every day. Though she earns a modest monthly wage, her dedication goes beyond monetary value. To her, keeping the beach pristine is both a responsibility and an act of love.
Zubaida understands that her small yet significant efforts help restore the beach’s beauty and protect the environment. Her commitment reflects a deep reverence for nature—a silent prayer for the sea to remain untainted and the sands unspoiled.
Her tireless work inspires all, reminding everyone that even the most minor actions can contribute to preserving the environment.
