The seas are rising! They are rising up into the air and falling on the mountains then the water rushes to the coast because it is lonely for the company of its family members it left behind. If they would pass a law requiring water families to be transported to the mountains rather than just the fathers. If the whole family goes there will not be as much of a rush to get back to the ocean. The floods are in reality a major traffic jam of all the fathers rushing back to be with their families. They need to rescind the water child labor laws and give equal pay to the water mothers also.
Nice spin, Guardian. That picture is of Bangladeshis building an embankment after cyclone Alia; nothing to do with sea-level rise.
They are confusing floods with sea level rise. By the way, Bangladesh has been gaining net land mass for over 30 years.

Jimbo:
Add Million and a few extras to that figure. If not for alluvial deposits Bangladesh would not be there. Of course that makes Bangladesh a flood plain that is populated beyond its carrying capacity and that situation has been enhanced by all the charitable contributions for well meaning foreigners. Of course we should send more money to improve the living conditions so they can have larger families!
like most places, their primary problem is corruption.
and religion. take a look next door bengal. same exact people. different religion(s)
Peter:
Of course it is corruption and our donations only promote more corruption!
There was a major world wide drive to save Bangladesh people from starvation and most of the money went to corrupt promoters or government officials. As is the case of a lot of charitable drives less than 10% reaches those the drive was created for!
We are $14 trillion in debt and counting (very rapidly counting) and we are now supposed to finance non existent solutions to non-existent problems for the “poor” nations of the world?
they must mean rich countries like china, india, and brazil, all in the top ten list of ‘carbon’ polluters
Dear
Please stop all financial support (I mean donation) that amke a very poor. Can you make a support technology, can you make a support technology base production industry, if you can support both sector we can benifit because donation can not make development, but employment can make finally help to improve life style and country will make wealth but benifit comes from world nation. So strongly dislike donation for our nation, its make a corrution traps and unrest economy, unrest political situation.
People are very much interest to be political leader, they are no need education and knoledge the need only power for curruption. So, please stop the donation and guide us for education, knoledge and edevelopment do not need donation.
