ABSTRACT:

This paper is an updated version of Pender's previous publication What is Climate Change? And How It May Affect Bangladesh, which aims to summarise current international and national literature on climate change using language that is more easily understood by development practitioners in Bangladesh and elsewhere. The paper presents climate change risks, approaches to climate change mitigation, specific predicted impacts of climate change on Bangladesh, and strategies for climate change adaptation.

This updated publication includes forwards by Bishop Paul S. Sarker, Moderator of The Church of Bangladesh, Claes Book, Environmental Adviser at Norwegian Church Aid, and Steffen Erik Mey Rasmussen, Policy Advisor at Food Security, DanChurchAid.
