Answer 1

First, you need to brush up on your communication skills. You won't be able to change the world if no one can understand what you are saying. Thank you and may GOD come soon to right the wrongs that have been done on this earth.

Answer 2

If America hadn't gotten into the wars, Britain would've been conquered. And nobody disputes that. Call it what you want. ADDENDUM: Honestly, go back and read what Churchill was saying at the time. He was on his knees praying that America would get in the war. And when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, Churchill was relieved, because he knew America would get into the war, and that the Allies would win. He had no illusions and no false pride. And I'm not insulting the British. Britain has done a whole lot for this world, including being the only country in the world (at one point) who was resisting the Nazis. But it's a fact. Britain did not have the manufacturing base to keep up with the Germans, nor could they protect their shipping against the U-boats, most notably, enough to import all the material they required. So American manufacturing and shipping helped the British, probably as much as American troops. Nobody is saying that American troops fought better or were braver. I think you're picking a fight that nobody wants to fight.

Hello Azhar,

Bangladesh is one of the countries that is most at risk from the effects of global warming and climate change. The Sundarban Delta is especially at risk from rising sea levels because it is so low lying, a small rise in sea levels will inundate the Sundarbans and affect up to 60 million people.

As you know, Bangladesh suffers some of the most violent storms on the planet and in the past there has been devastating loss of life from cyclones and flooding - I beleive over 1 million people died in a single cyclone in something like 1971. There is evidence to suggest that global warming is contributing to an increase in the number and intensity of such storms.

Bangladesh will not be lost underwater, some parts might be but the majority of it will be OK. What global warming does mean is that in the years to come a great many people are going to have to move and their lives could be seriously affected.

Countries in Africa and Asia are set to be the hardest hit by climate change and sometimes people here in the US and Europe tend to overlook that. I think it's very different for you as you are experiencing the effects of global warming first hand.

I hope that we, everyone, can work together to resolve the problems of climate change so that you, your fellow Bangladeshis and all other people do not suffer as a result.

Answer 4

I'm from Bangladesh and aware of the problem you are asking here. Respondent Trevor and others here adequately addressed your concern.

I'm now trying to do something to help you frame Question, if you like to heed. If I were you then I may have written the same question with proper grammar and spellings, like follows:

********************************
I would like to ask everybody in this world the following question.

What can be done to save this world from the menace of changing weather pattern those are already causing devastating affect on our country by way of increased in frequency of storms, cyclones and tidal bores?

We live in one of the third world countries in Asia - Bangladesh. Our country's coastal landmass is at a very dangerous point since it is almost at sea level. We are suffering for the follies of the richer countries lifestyles where they are causing tremendous increase of emission of green-house gas. Within next 30 years one-third of our country will go under the seawater. However, if we all could help control Green House Gas's emission now then it would be easier to save our lives.

Thanks for your help, Azhar.
********************************

I'm sorry that my English is also not as good as that of native English speaker, but at least we need to learn enough English to save our skin or may be our life when we are drowning!

Hope your next posting in Y!A would be more improved one and help people understand what you are asking. It is not that nobody understood your question, but it gives bad Image of our country if we are not properly educated or take help of grammar and spellchecker which are not that difficult to source.

Have a nice learning experience!

Here is an article relating to the effects of Glbal Warming in Bangladesh.

Hope this will sensitize people who reads this:

Global warming gains foothold in Bangladesh
Climate changes already causing heavier flooding
By Henry Chu, Los Angeles Times | February 25, 2007



BHAMIA, Bangladesh -- Global warming has a taste in this village. It is the taste of salt.

Only a few years ago, water from the local pond was fresh and sweet on Samit Biswas's tongue. It quenched his family's thirst and cleansed their bodies.

But drinking a cupful now leaves a briny flavor in his mouth. Tiny white crystals sprout on Biswas's skin after he bathes and in his clothes after his wife washes them.

The change, international scientists say, is the result of intensified flooding caused by shifting climate patterns. Warmer weather and rising oceans are sending seawater surging up Bangladesh's rivers in greater volume and frequency than ever before, specialists say, overflowing and seeping into the soil and the water supplies of thousands of people.

Their lives are being squeezed by distant lands they have seen only on television -- the United States, China, and Russia at the top of the heap -- whose carbon emissions are pushing temperatures and sea levels inexorably upward. Earlier this month, a long-awaited report by the United Nations said global warming fueled by human activity could raise temperatures by 8 degrees and the ocean's surface by 23 inches by 2100.

In southwest Bangladesh, the bleak future forecast by the report is already becoming a reality, bringing misery along with it.

Heavier-than-usual floods have wiped out homes and paddies . They have increased the salinity of the water, which is contaminating wells, killing trees, and slowly poisoning the mighty mangrove jungle that forms a natural barrier against the Bay of Bengal.

If sea levels continue to rise at their present rate, by the time Biswas, 35, retires from his job as a teacher, the only home he has known will be swamped, overrun by the ocean with the force of an unstoppable army. That, in turn, will trigger another kind of flood: millions of displaced residents desperate for a place to live.

"It will be a disaster," Biswas said.

Bangladesh, a densely crowded and painfully poor nation, contributes only a minuscule amount to the greenhouse gases slowly smothering the planet. But a combination of geography and demography puts it among the countries that specialists predict will be hardest hit as the earth heats up.

Nearly 150 million people, the equivalent of about half the US population, live packed in an area the size of Iowa and about as flat. Home to where the mighty Brahmaputra , Ganges , and Meghna rivers meet, most of Bangladesh is a vast delta of alluvial plains that are barely above sea level, making it prone to flooding from waterways swollen by rain, snowmelt from the Himalayas, and increased infiltration by the ocean.

Global warming trends have already exacerbated that, and the situation will probably only get worse, scientists say.

"A little increase in temperature, a little climate change, has a magnified impact here," said A. Atiq Rahman, the director of the Bangladesh Center for Advanced Studies -- the country's leading environmental research group -- based in Dhaka, the capital. "That's what makes the population here so vulnerable."

Other low-lying countries are also at risk, such as the Netherlands and tiny islands in the South Pacific that could eventually be swallowed by the expanding oceans. But the population of these countries is only a fraction of that of Bangladesh.

If the sea rises by a foot, which some researchers say could happen by 2040, the resulting damage would set back Bangladesh's progress by 30 years, Rahman said. Up to 12 percent of the population would be made homeless.

A 3-foot rise by century's end -- a possible scenario if polar ice caps melt at a more rapid pace, would wreak havoc in Bangladesh on an apocalyptic, Atlantis-like scale, according to scientific projections and models.

A quarter of the country would be submerged. Dhaka, now in the center of the nation, would sit within 60 miles of the coast, where boats would float over the drowned remnants of countless town squares, markets, houses, and schools. As many as 30 million people would become refugees in their own land, many of them subsistence farmers with nothing to subsist on any longer.

"Tomorrow's poverty will be far worse than today's," Rahman said.

For years, the government either denied or downplayed the danger . Bangladesh is hardly unique in that regard; many accuse the United States of doing the same. Rahman recalls overhearing officials call him a madman when he warned that Bangladesh risked being permanently inundated.

But the weight of scientific opinion has grown, as has evidence that climate patterns are already shifting and producing harmful effects in this region. Politicians who had previously dismissed global warming as a far-off problem are starting to see it as a clear and present danger

Answer 6

How thoughtful of you. Keep up the good work.
☻Increasing Greenhouse Gases = Greenhouse gases naturally occur in the earth's atmosphere. They trap heat from the sun and keep the Earth's temperature at a livable15 degrees Centigrade. But human activities have led to an increase in the amount of greenhouse gases, warming the Earth's temperature above normal.

Answer 7

do any of your people know how to build boats, or maybe rafts, I would get busy if I where you, because we rotton americans wont give up our cars to walk, or live in the dark, or freze in the cold, not even turn off these darn computers, so it looks like "the tide is high, and I moving on"
