Over the years, Chattogram’s Ananda Bazar has become a hub for discarded plastic products. Gathered from all across the city, they are processed and exported to countries like China and Turkey, for reuse and recycling. Amidst the looming threat of the climate crisis, this is a step towards addressing environmental concerns, which also creates an alternative way to earn foreign currencies along the way.

With customers free and far between, what else could she even do? This photo was taken yesterday. Photo: Palash Khan
