Climate Change Bangladesh
Sea-level rise in Bangladesh: Faster than global average
Bangladesh is experiencing a faster sea-level rise than the global average of 3.42mm a year, which will impact food production and livelihoods even more than previously thought, government studies have found.
Why the lack of data on how climate change affects public health?
There's a prevailing tendency to attribute common issues to climate-induced factors, without reliable data to back up the claims.
Rising Sea Levels: 9 lakh in south may be displaced by 2050
Sea level rise may displace almost nine lakh people from southern Bangladesh by 2050, because their homes and livelihood will be jeopardised.
Rising sea levels and the lessons to learn
A thorough and strategic approach is required to defend against the recurrent floods and climatic disasters Bangladesh faces.
A window of opportunity to phase out fossil fuels
We cannot continue to allow wealthy countries to externalise the damage of their pollution spree.
Global loss and damage initiative launched in Dhaka
This new initiative aims to support both governments and civil societies in the vulnerable countries to enhance their knowledge of and responses to the adverse impacts of human-induced climate change.
Taxing air travel could fund climate victims
Public financing from developed countries will never be sufficient.
The whos and hows of allocating loss and damage funds
The estimates of the total losses and damages run into many trillions of US dollars.
Can parametric insurance be a tool for climate resilience?
There has been a wave of climate change policies in recent years, but unfortunately, implementation efforts have remained fragmented.
