Climate Change In Bangladesh
House is seen almost damaged after a heavy storm in a coastal area at Khulna, Bangladesh on March 10, 2023 . Not too long ago the coastal village in Bangladesh, was full of cultivable land until the rising sea levels began to swallow the area all the way up to the Bay of Bengal. Frequent cyclones and floods hit the village since the late 1990s. In 2009, a major cyclone named Aila destroyed the country's 1,400 kilometres of embankments, 8,800 kilometres of roads, and about 3,50,000 acres of farmland. Several hundred people were reportedly killed in the disaster. The farmers of the coastal were the worst hit. As most of the village land was submerged in water, the people of coastal area built new homes on bamboo poles 4 to 5 feet above the ground. (Photo by Kazi Salahuddin Razu/NurPhoto)
