    This is a proof that this world is slowly getting worst. All of us haveca contribution to climate change. Our greediness and being materialistic is the main reason of it. Being self centered.

    Very trivially: healthy forests are the biggest protection against floods and heavy rain, in the past 10 years Bangladesh harvested 2600 ha of forests per year (highest rate in South-East Asia)."Climate change" is a giant umbrella under which the real problem hides: profit at all cost (deforestation, chemichal pollution, habitat destruction)

    Maybe if they were smarter, or developed construction methods appropriate to the climate, they might not have such a problem.

    Bangladesh is like Brazil in that aspect: every year there's a flood season, and every year it's a surprise! And I'm sure every election the candidates promise to vanish the floods. The local governments need to implement a housing program in order to adapt to the floods. They are only going to get worse...
