I would suggest a review of these Asiatic areas for climate change sensitivity Bangladesh because of both the issues with flooding and rising sea levels.

About one third of the world population might be affected if the sustainability of rice in lowland areas becomes affected significantly.
threats related to warming:
- increase in the frequency, intensity and duration of droughts in some regions, extreme precipitation, floods, cases of waterlogging dangerous for agriculture-in others;
- increased fire risk in forests and peatlands;
- violation of the habitual way of life of indigenous northern peoples;
- degradation of permafrost with damage to buildings and communications;
- disturbance of ecological balance, displacement of some biological species by others;
- increase in electricity consumption for air conditioning in the summer season for a large area of the country.
