Photo by @amivitale. Scientists are predicting that climate change could lead to a rise in sea levels that would flood at least 17 percent of #Bangladesh and create around 20-35 million #refugees by 2050. They say the monsoon rains in the region are concentrating into a shorter period, causing a cruel combination of more extreme floods and longer periods of drought. In the capital of #Dhaka, the impact is already being felt, with some half a million migrants arriving in the city each year. These “climate change refugees” are pouring mostly into squalid slums and the biggest reason for moving is environmental degradation.
The situation is at once ironic and unjust.The poorest are the most affected by climate change but they are the least responsible for it. Whether it becomes one of the great human tragedies of our time or a model for the future depends on these choices; what happens next is in our hands. Right now Bangladesh appears far away, but our planet's ecosystem is an intricate web and the lessons learned here, are important for all of humanity.
