Bangladesh is extremely vulnerable to the effects of global warming. In September, a high-level conference was held in London to address the impacts of climate change on people in Bangladesh. Hosted by the UK and Bangladeshi governments, the event saw the UK Government announce £75 million to help Bangladesh fund its response to climate change.
