SUMMARY:Demonstration and meeting against Rampal Coal Power Plant
DESCRIPTION:The event is cancelled due to the death of Shahid Qadri/Shahid Quadery – a Bangladeshi poet.  \nBangladesh Environmental Network (BEN) – an environmental organization of non-resident Bangladeshis (NRB) – will organize a demonstration and meeting against Rampal Coal Power Plant in Jackson Heights in Aug 21st. The theme of the meeting is to Stop Rampal\, Save Sundarbans\, Save Bangladesh. The event will start with a demonstration at the Jackson Heights Diversity Plaza. A discussion meeting will be held at a nearby location after the demonstration. \nRegular blackouts are prompting Bangladesh to make two new coal-powered energy plants – the Rampal power plant will be operational by 2021. The location of plants are close to the Sundarbans\, the world’s biggest single tract of mangrove forest\, home to Royal Bengal Tigers\, freshwater dolphins\, and other species. Critics of the project – environmental groups\, local communities\, scientists\, banks and UNESCO are critical of the plants’ proposed location near the Sundarbans\, which they say will harm the region’s wildlife and human communities. \nBangladeshi community in New York as well as concerned environmental groups raised their voices against the project.  Demonstration and meeting against Rampal Coal Power Plant is another event to make the opposition loud and clear. \nThe event is fee and all are welcome to join and share their thoughts. \nVenue: \nMamun’s Tutorial\n37-21\, 72nd Street\, Jackson Heights\, NY 11372\n\nContact: \nSayed Fazlur Rahman\, 347-842-8527
