Abstract: This work focuses on the study of the physical properties of an innovative clay-Typha composite agro-material. The clay was taken in southern Benin from the sites of Dangbo and Houéyogbé, the Typha "Domengensis" from southern Benin invading our lagoons, and lake environments in general was used to solve an ecosystem problem and the balance social. This article aims as the general objective to determine the density, the humidity rate, and the water content of this eco-material obtained from Typha taken in a clay matrix. Thus, using the appropriate conventional methods, the physical parameters mentioned were measured. The analysis of the results obtained clearly show that the density of the samples increases according to the rate of the binder, the determination of the water absorption coefficient is affected by the presence of the clay matrix in the composite and that the rate of humidity increases according to the grain size class of typha fibers. These experimental tests are the harbinger of more in-depth work in the field of thermal comfort of the habital, in order to better understand and improve these agro-bricks.

Abstract: Green financing or environmentally friendly financing is a newly arising financial form to accumulate environmental preservation with sustainable goals, economic gains, emphasizes environmental benefits, low carbon economy in ways that benefit the organization and its stakeholders. Entrepreneurs, investors, and owners of the organization of different countries in the world are more concerned about investment their capital that’s why they prefer green or sustainable financing. The article is devoted to the study of the essence of "green" finance and to highlight the present condition of green financing in Bangladesh. This research paper mostly draws on secondary data that was gathered from the Bangladesh Bank's annual report as well as publications on sustainable and inclusive banking, green banking, and green financing that were published in newspapers, journals, and books. The goal of the article is to examine how green financing might be used to achieve sustainable development objectives in Bangladesh and reveals the various challenges that impact to achieve the sustainable development of Bangladesh as well as opportunities which are going to aid the financial institutions of our country. The necessity of greening the financial system is covered in this study and the role of financial governance to overcome the crisis of electricity and how renewable energy (green) will help to diminish this difficulty.
