Economic of Adaptation to Climate Change : Bangladesh, Volume 2. Annexes

Bangladesh is one of the most vulnerable countries in the world to climate risks. Two-thirds of the nation is less than 5 meters above sea level and is susceptible to river and rainwater flooding, particularly during the monsoon. The Bangladesh Cli...
