Environmental Problem in Sri Lanka.                     Sri Lanka, a land of natural beauty and rich culture, is facing many pressing environmental issues that require our immediate attention. One of the most critical concerns in Sri Lanka is deforestation. Rapid expansion of agriculture, urbanization and infrastructural development has led to extensive forest clearing.
