Sea Level Rise in Bangladesh
Sharbanu, age 78, and her granddaughter Amina, age 11, are two of the many local people affected by sea level rise. Sharbanu says, "When I tried to save my home during Cyclone Aila I broke my arm and leg. I'm so terrified when the tide is high, I cant help thinking about the next cyclone."
Young Amina remembers, "I saw my house sinking into the water."
