By 2050, 30% of Bangladesh will be under water. One in three inhabitants, some 60 million people, are threatened by marine flooding. No other country in the world is so at risk from rising waters. The main culprit: global warming.
To the south, in the Ganges delta, the salt water that invades the land has disrupted the entire economy of the region. Many farmers have had to convert their rice paddies into shrimp farms, which are much less profitable. The country is also threatened from within by its gigantic rivers. The melting ice of the Himalayas and heavy monsoon rains are dangerously increasing their flow. Every year, the rivers bursts their banks and tens of thousands of homes are washed away. Every year, nearly 15,000 children drown in the rising waters.
Due to all these natural disasters, Dhaka, the capital, is facing a massive influx of climate refugees. Having lost everything, they are looking for odd jobs to survive. Korban Ali became a tricycle driver to transport people. He works 12 hours a day, seven days a week, in the hope of providing a better life for his children.
Bangladesh is also battling extreme pollution caused largely by the textile industry. Every day tons of toxic waste are released into nature. Sewage treatment plants empty their tanks loaded with carcinogenic chemicals directly into the rivers. But a new middle and upper class wants to change mentalities. The first model companies are emerging. Jahirul was educated in Australia. Now director of a ship dismantling yard, he has invested 10 million euros to be able to reprocess hazardous waste, such as asbestos, batteries and engine oils.

Everytime someone has put a date on anything like this they have been wrong.
@@EternallyGod it's all nonsense trust me, you can see actual photos of the shorelines from 1900's hasn't moved an inch across the globe - infact plymouth rock from the 1700's is still in the same place, same sea level, for 300+ years
//;*;*;*;;//.
😂😂😂😂😂 Main culprit - Human gullibility. Go and learn Geography
@@SolarHeavy Yeah, clowns online seem to be rather gullible
The country is a little bit bigger in area than Greece but has 15 times more population!!!
Greece wasnt independent just 50 years ago. This country is growing. Beginning of this country was 14 crore now having 19/20 crore. Also Greece is not only 1 country its one of the countries of Europe. People can move to different countries there, while here nowhere to move.
Overpopulated, What could go wrong....
Made worse by rising seas
I cannot understand the cycle. " we cannot feed our children , we cannot feed our children". continue to have more and more children.
Lack of self control, just like in Africa.
@@jonaswatson533or resources like birth control or knowledge period
Children tend to die earlier later, so mothers and families birth more children a chance that one of them gets a better cards in life or stays alive to help with work and living.
Lack of contraceptives is the more likely answer. Sex is one of the most human acts
@@jonaswatson533 You are partly right. Many African countries are in war with each other or have civil war . There is assumbtion the more population a country has , the more chance it has on the War front! Russia was on the same road untill it got their Nuclear W in late 1940s. Before that every Russian mother had 6 childen and few dogs. Today they have average 1 child , few dogs and 1 Nuclear B per family. 😂 Unless there is an organisation that could guarantee these Asian, African and South American countries a permanent happy ending peace , they will reach Billions!
A country size of Nepal and population more than Russia...blame global warming
You mean India ?
A bit like India where living condition is even worse. But u are right
Pakistan 🇵🇰 😅
south asia is too dense
@@ChinaTech2024 rip geography? i think china doesnt teach their children properly
So sad, the waters and air are being polluted and government does nothing! They can pray all day, it won't help in any way.
Blame China & India for pollution, no other countries/ nations even come close to their pollution output. Ps: government is not your saviour. Never has, never will be ...
The water doesn't get polluted on it's own. It gets polluted by the bengalies. I have been living in a bengali neighborhood in east London for last 30 years. This people drop their garbage in the greens and communal areas with the intention of feeding the animals thing that we don't do in Europe since the plague. From raw meat to rotten chicken. This people are missing living in a landfill
I'm on tears with the rickshaw driver trying his very best to send his children in the school despite of earning only an small amt.. even living in an uncomfortable shelter. Government of Bangladesh shd do a remedy of their countries major problems.
Same i am also in tear
I find it hard to empathise.. I mean, the solution is obvious: move to a better place! Are we supposed to feel bad for him for being lazy?
Why if he would teach his children they would be better off.....the rich teach there children....poor people pay a school teacher.
This isn't an isolated problem. its a question of scale; of being relative. the climate and geography play a roll making some places worse and more susceptible. But its just greed. I saw a figure today. the 1,000 wealthiest people on the planet have more than 8 BILLION poor people. that is staggering and suffocating.
There is little choice here. 1. You can lend your house. 2. phosgene. 3. PROFIT
Replace the phrase "global warming" with "overpopulation." That's the problem. No food or means to support themselves but having many children?
Their many gods gonna make a way. 😶
@firemedic7917, Same thing in the Philippines. Walk down the street and there's a woman hand out begging for money. 3,4,5 kids around her, one in her arms and another one in her belly. If you say " no" she has the kids follow you for 2 blocks begging money. This would happen several times every time I went downtown in Surigao City. I finally got tired and had an idea. I had to go downtown and there was a woman like what I mentioned above. I reached into my pocket and then extended my closed fist palm down. She put out her hand and I dropped some rubbers in it. They must talk among themselves as they never approached me after that. But one that sticks out was when I was at an ATM and the line was long, about 12 people ahead of me, ALL Filipinos. A woman came along and stood where people exited the ATM. Not once she she ask or put out her hand to the Filipinos. But when I finished and walked her hand shot out faster than a fart disappears in a hurricane.
@@samuelschick8813 the church shames birth control, women get hit by their husbands when they refuse sex or suggest birth control. Lots of factors.
Amen to you.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
There should be a worldwide effort to make sure all rivers do not have trash and sewage dumped in them.
These teachers are incredible and selfless people. ❤️
In 1990, they said that Bangladesh will drown in 40 years time which would be 2030. So they've pushed it along now...funny how this climate moves along conveniently
Sad and inspiring at the same time. Thanks especially to the locals risking their livelihood to take you under cover and for the entrepreneurs that are striving to do right by their workers so everyone wins!!!
What i got from this is they blame another country for what they are doing and have been doing to thier own country and water source, when its thier own people profiting off of thier labor and not providing decent wage or healthcare,but its our fault in America?
So many videos have detailed the catastrophe that has been allowed to happen with all known water sources being polluted by industrial textile and other major companies. You can't even swim in any of them or your risk major infects or possible future cancer from what has been dumped into them. It is just the outcome of Capital abusing sovereignty and the people of countries, as it continues to since its inception. Heavy regulations need to be put in place to recover what they have lost.
None of the hardship in Bangladesh has anything to do with "Climate Change", really discredits the entire documentary and everyone who probably worked very hard on it.
If you wanna make people eat bugs you got to convince them that cow farts can change a planet faster than the star sitting next to the earth can.
Climate Change: the new religion
Jakarta also sinking.. same problem
Ignorance like yours is the problem.
The beginning was about the water rising. Then it became irrelevant.
Same thought here
Thank you for documenting this Country's plight. Excellent progam.
Saw something similar with rice field's being used to raise shrimp... not sure where but they where doing pretty well with it.
Due to you wanting to be rich...you pollute your own rivers
USA is drowning too, but in debt.
At least debt is a social construct and wont disappear you land and change the ecology.
I’d rather drown in debt than water
Beautiful,, let the mother nature take back her land from us..
I hope Mother Nature take back your home
The whole country is on a flood plain. You can't blame global warming for people's ignorance of geology.
True, but it won't stop the climate crazies from chanting.
This country needs one thing : EDUCATION!!!! and thats about it. Education in everything.
Wrong we have that. What we need is no corruption.
We need to leave Bangladesh as soon as possible
Solution: 1. Get rid of religious mythology 2. Birth control 3. Education 😶
The lord is the only answer.
Rite
@@EternallyGod, Now prove the Lord with objective evidence.
easy to talk
@@EternallyGod😂😂Ummmm No! he is the reason. I just know you’re poor and uneducated. It has been scientifically proven that religious extremism causes brain damage, my condolences to your common sense
God bless the rickshaw driver only trying to make a better life for his son’s. ❤
No God. Only humans could solve most human problems. First, start with population control. Two, improve food system. Three, create good government. I could go on.... but viewers get the idea. And must STOP believing in God.
PLEASE PLEASE can you do voiceovers instead of the words on the screen ? I wish I had the luxury to sit down and fully watch this very Interesting story , however , I'm busy in the kitchen or doing other chores and I can only listen and occasionally look at the screen . I'm sure that I am not your only viewer that would benefit from this request . Thank you much.
I think this all the time! If I have to read too much I end up just listening to something else bc I don’t have time to sit & watch videos for hours a day (I wish I could!) but I can listen while I do everything else!
I'm blind in one eye and have low visibility in the other. I'm a proponent!!
According to the tradition the bride pretend to hesitate 😂
Making more children in the name of Allah... What do you aspects... Global warming 😂
Turut prihatin atas kondisi yang menimpa Bangladesh saat ini , khususnya terkait dengan akibat dari adanya pemanasan global ... mungkin perlu ada kerjasama teknik dengan pemerintah Belanda untuk mengatasi tantangan alam ini atau mungkin secara pelan2 bisa merelokasi sebagian warganya ke daerah2 yang lebih aman , jangan terlalu bertumpuk di bagian2 yang rawan bencana ...
To the rickshaw driver, God bless you!❤
That's not a river.....it is just the ocean water equalizing the water level
Well, I'm grateful for my life at this moment. I was actually complaining this morning because my tortilla broke in the middle of my burrito. Mind reset!
2:18 Ancient Marib dam is a good suggestion for the innodations to implement
Man I wanted to hug him so bad 😢 Children are our heart that love is strong and universal ❤ I hope his circumstances become better 🙏🏼 Bangladesh people here in US are so friendly helpful and caring
You won't see there real face.. They are radical to to theirs religion.. Most Asian and European countries facing their radical behavior from past years
@@slimshaddy6668 everwyhere poverty is a problem regardless the religions
Cool. Lots of water to swim in
My grand dad told me that 60 years ago and nowdays Bangladesh is the same
PHP has developed actual ESG. It was No.1 decades ago, but no gears back then.
Part of the problem is tons of poor people having children they cannot afford.
It was the people not the country's problem
They never stop breeding.... married at 15 and 20 kids by 40..😮😮
Don't be overhyped by just a video/ Birthrate of Bangladesh is now under 2 per family/
I really want to know what's happening, if anything, to the tanneries. Especially what impact the journalist has made..
Nice
Love from Bangladesh 🤗🇧🇩
I went to Bangladesh in the early 80's. The poverty was even worse than in India. It amuses me to see that fancy Mercedes in the video. I'd like to know who is going to fix it when it breaks.
Not to mention that Bangladeshis are quite lacking in the height and appearance department. They are very dark complexion and short statured, even compared to Indians.
@@SpiritualSeeker-oq5pt I also saw a lot of people with obvious mental issues while there. Terrible place.
@@williambush7971 cheers 🤝🍻Here in India we refer to the region as Kangludesh. Kangal means beggar.
I saw this document before a year on different channel.
Hope you visit Pakistan and make a documentary on our industry situation related to environmental health. They don't tell us anything and we need to know what's going on
"according to tradition, the bride pretends to hesitate" A lot to unpack there
Everything is global warming, including centuries-old traditions that are to blame for global warming, what are they doing with the River Gandy and is it also to blame for global warming?
This world 🌎 is wild 😳!
The people are what wild. Lol
This is so sad on these kids
come to Malaysia...our melayu people really love Bangladesh people
why do malaysia not help Gaza
💀
Why not used half of your GDP to build coastal roads projects like in Philippines, almost entire davao the coastal roads almost done, sorsogon coastal roads is done, Bulacan to manila coastal areas is reclaimed for modern elevated cities. rivers are desilted already before to flooding now in manila no more floods...
Bangladesh which is the size of England and Wales has 180 million people. 75 percent of Bangladesh sits below sea level. One child policy is the only answer. They are multiplying rapidly while they know there is no land and resources to sustain.
Don't worry, in 10 years they will become the norm in your country and it will be easier for you to spare them on your taxes. The most common name in England is Muhamed. The same ending awaits you.
Is the Bengali language spoken by the west Bengal and spoken by the Bangladeshi different? It sounds different !!!
I despair of my own life in the west and long to retire and then see this. It brings a serious reality check. We in the west are not on the edge of starvation like these poor folks. We need a better world where wealth is shared and no one goes without.
There is no starvation there, there is simply overpopulation of the territory. Until things change in your head, nothing good will happen there, regardless of whether there is water or no water.
this is where our middle class went. the big companies took the jobs from here to over there and now they have the middle classes that we are losing.
Would you work in a garment factory for minimum wage? Didn't think so.
😒🙄
because of the culture the bride need to PRETEND to hesitate to say YES.
Bangladesh is an overpopulated country and One of 3 families has more 3 or 4 kids. Having kids is not a huge problem. But the problem is they don't feed them, not buy new clothes , even they are unable to educate and send their children to school at least. They mostly work from dawn to dusk. However, As they are lower class from the economy's perspectives . Time to think deeply why having more kids although unable to provide a quality life. Lastly what is responsible for this issue is not having proper knowledge regarding Soil eroson in the river side people, Depositing money for up coming future.
fighting the tide is literally the most pointless effort you could possibly make...it will never stop, it will never end. just move...
Much better for them to build a floating houses.
I’m watching this in complete shock. I cannot even begin to fathom how those in this part of the world survives! And we complain about the smallest things here in America. Man… and they are worshipping the wrong God! Smh … Jesus have mercy on your creation.
Wow, that Bangladesh pollution is shocking. Turn fashion into a bad thing.
Stressed world showroom
I FEEL SAD
Time to move
start planting manggrove
the parents of the little girl drowning seemed kinda sus imo
So blame global warming then?
this is the reason i would rather buy zara or massimo dutti clothes i refuse to pay those that benefit from the suffering of the poor in bangladesh
That area is just above sea level. Why they live there is beyond me.
There is not much land to choose from in the country, over 150 million in a small area.
Idk, maybe because the region is really fertile and people have been migrating to that region for millenia? Geez are you Americans all this dumb?
Good documentary but man the people live (HARD)
Al Jazeera news should make documentary. They busy helping terrorist
😂😂😂 U R Right
Free Palestine ❤️
It's strange...on the world market shri7costs much more than rice but for farmers It's the reverse 🤔..buy a bag of rice vs a shrimp cocktail and comment back....
Shucks... i hope our borders are strong.
If you think Bangladesh is at the risk of sinking,then imagine the plight of Maldives. Where will the Maldivians go when their Island goes down ?
Coming in 2077: - Bangladesh: Atlantic new Dawn
Rather then stressing about climate change for people who live right next to the OCEAN, you stress contraception to people who can’t afford to feed their children.
More and more religious radicalism will make the condition worse in Bangladesh. No hope for this poor country
They need to pray to Jesus
When that mother told that she was reading the quran when her daughter was drowning, it came to my mind that it'll never happen like that. Her daughter would never have died if She's reading the Bible instead
@@DawanRi-iaki only Jesus of the Bible . Isa ( jesus) of the quran is a false Jesus. Deuteronomy 29:29 read it .. The secrets are the Lord's,....
@@francescocosentini9264 i agree with you mate
The poor inhabitants of Bangladesh, who work in the industries, have the same problems that the British had during the famous British Industrial Revolution of the eighteenth century. Don't worry, if they survived, you'll make it too.
This channel is only focused on negativity but never 👎 show positive side of Bangladesh 🇧🇩 like modern development, road 🛣️ infrastructure, there’s 24 mega projects near completion & are changing the face of this country. I live here & I know how it is ? This is a old video, now things changed a lot.
no one cares about bangladesh
The shirtless men was the best part of this movie
rice cost more then shrimp, i guess your getting ripped of by the middle man
JANGAN SEMBAH BERHALA berhala itu harta benda kenderaan perhiasan binaan dll jangan jadi HAMBA ABDI berhutang riba, JANGAN MALU miskin tiada apa itu MERDEKA selamatlah diri dan keluarga..

Move to a higher area.

Capitalism is the name. Horrible this situation same situation in my country. IUD is simple, cheap, and can help better familiar situation, however powerful rich decides for all, they want born milion for be poverty and cry for a misery job.
Bingo! You got it!!! 😳
If I have money I will build a house for these men who pays 1 euro a day, they don't need to pay just a better place to stay while working
Mangrow tree's grow
😮my goodness. If we support each other like people dedicate their lives to a religion what could happen. If im living like this no deitiy out there could have my attention. I need something.
I fully expected this documentary to follow the rivers that is supposedly causing these floodings, then we'll be able to see what is really causing this to occur??? But no, it just went around in a circle😒.
