Congress that supports the Presidents efforts on climate change. a message we conveyed to other nations. including Bangladesh. It is a country that has contributed little to industrial air pollution. but it is one of the most vulnerable to the negative impacts of climate change. It is estimated that unless we act. rising sea level will inundate some 17 percent of Bangladesh. displacing about 18 million people in this lowlying nation. They will be uprooted and turned into climate refugees without a home. But. of course. climate change isnt something that will just impact Bangladesh and other lowlying nations. It is already impacting us right here at home.
