Hansen : Bangladesh To Drown

BANGLADESH: When your country could drown

Sea level rise could sound the death knell for low-lying Bangladesh, most of which is only two to 13 metres above sea level, according to various estimates. The response to Hansen’s paper is therefore understandable.

The paper, Target Atmospheric CO2: Where Should Humanity Aim?, which Hansen co-authored with nine other scientists, called for greater reductions in CO2 emissions to prevent sea-level rise caused by the world’s inexorably melting ice.
