Researchers warn that within a few decades, Bangladesh may lose more than 10% of its land to rising sea levels, displacing as many as 18 million people. Decisions to leave coastal communities aren’t really decisions at all. Families leave because there are no other options. There is no work. There are no homes. Over the past decade, an average of 700,000 Bangladeshis a year migrated because of natural disasters, moving to Dhaka to live in sprawling slums as climate refugees. The sisters Kulsum and Komola Begum have managed to forge opportunity from disaster, making a living scavenging bricks, which they sell to construction workers for roughly $1.40 a sack. ‘‘When we were young, the old people used to say that the sea was very far from here,’’ Komola said. ‘‘They packed up their meals and walked their way to the sea. But now you can reach it in no time.’’ @andrea_frazzetta shot these photos for @nytmag’s climate issue. Visit the link in profile to read more.
