Description

In August, the UN climate panel issued a “code red for humanity”. The latest IPCC report warned of a catastrophic planetary future if global emissions don’t reach net-zero within the next few decades. But in Bangladesh, there’s no code red needed. The country’s residents have been watching the seas rise and the glaciers melt, right in front of their eyes. And they have lessons - and warnings - for the rest of the world.
