So the 360 sq km land rose up from sea in 1978? Cool .

Yes but dont worry, PDF climate-specialists has deemed BD to go under water soon. Ready your swimming vests.

However, the Indians are systematically propagating about BD losing more than 360 sq.km of land every other year due to the rise of sea level. It seems the Indians are wrong and are only bad mouthing BD.

There is no way they can be wrong. They have vedic knowledge and we dont.

Yes courtesy of india, each year alluvial soil is washed down from Himalayas through the major rivers and tributaries into the Bay of Bengal thus creating new islands (you could say we are aquiring indian land without a shot....).

India need to build a yuge wall around the Himalayas and stop the land going to BD's sea territory.

And make BD pay for it.

Well hope they try.....

Way to derail your own thread. Here's some reality check.

Kutubdia is one of many islands off Bangladesh and India affected by increasingly rapid erosion and some of the fastest recorded sea-level rises in the world. These "vanishing islands" are shrinking dramatically. Kutubdia has halved in size in 20 years, to about 100 sq km. Since 1991 six villages on the island of fishermen and salt workers have been swamped and about 40,000 people have fled. Like Hashem, most have relocated to the coast near Cox's Bazar.

At the current rate of erosion Kutubdia will be off the map within 30 years, along with dozens of other coastal islands. Sandwip, near Chittagong, covered 600 sq km 50 years ago. It is now a tenth of the size, its area having halved over the past 20 years alone. Further north along the Bay of Bengal, 12 islands – home to 70,000 people – are said by the Bangladeshi government to be "immediately threatened" by the rising seas.

Of Course Sea level rising is real, We need the climate fund.

This is the best way to deal with these BeeDees.

Let them high five and agglomerate and form a critical mass thinking they are going somewhere. Then torpedo the leaky boat in one fell swoop

Didn't realize we had so many climate change skeptics here...here's hoping you guys are never in a position to make any decisions wrt to this issue

World map during last ice age

Most of south east asia is now under the sea due to global warming since then. Bangladesh remained above water despite it raised from bottom of the sea.
Just think deeply why Bengal delta is least affected compared to other part of India despite always being a land at sea level.

And India is more responsible for this man-made catastrophe that is making some islands throughout the world very vulnerable. Coal is fed into India's 39% of power plants which is devastating the atmospheric balance in our region. India should compensate for whatever loss BD may be facing.
