Policies should be developed, implemented, and monitored to eradicate these problems and provide a sustainable environment.

Three types of influencing factors (physical, anthropogenic, and combinedly) have been found for environmental degradation, and another two types of effects (direct and intermediate). That affects the study area's local agriculture, biodiversity, water supply, and overall socioeconomic livelihoods. km) is moderately, and nearly a quarter (24.03%) is severely vulnerable. It is one of the most vulnerable to environmental degradation about 10 meters of groundwater was depleted from 1992 to 2017.

Geospatial techniques are used to identify and quantify the extension of vulnerability to environmental degradation based on five key indicators of environmental change: bare soil, surface water, vegetation cover, drainage density, and groundwater level change. This study explores spatial vulnerability to environmental degradation and the cause-effect of the degradation in the Northwestern Barind Tract of Bangladesh. Regarding environmental degradation in Bangladesh, resource reduction issues come into the frontline because of its diverse relation with human life, livelihoods, and food security. soil, water, air, and biotic components, along with climate-induced problems causing environmental degradation globally. In the 21st century, misuse of natural resources, viz.
