Climate refugees in Bangladesh

Synopsis

Within the next 30 years, Bangladesh faces a dire future as up to 20% of its land will disappear beneath rising waters from rivers and sea levels. This alarming situation could displace as many as 30 million people, marking a significant climate crisis. The film presents a vivid portrayal of Bangladesh's future, highlighting the Meghna River, which has already expanded to nine kilometers wide in some areas due to climate change. Researchers indicate that this is merely the beginning of a global phenomenon, as similar events will soon affect other regions worldwide. The documentary emphasizes the urgent need to address climate change and its devastating impacts on vulnerable populations in Bangladesh.
