Don't watch this video as a interesting geography lesson but rather look at it as a opportunity to ponder of our lives and how much we take these basic things for granted. We got no reason to suffer from depression when these people are struggling and continue struggle in such TOUGH times.

Help save India/Bangladesh from this disastrous flood.
The animals, the children, the disabled, the elderly, no clean water, no food, and here we take every little thing for granted. Let's appreciate what we already have and do what we can to help others in need. Global warming is a world problem, nobody is safe, act now.

Here's the thing though, the flood is rather unexpected. I'm from north-eastern part of Bangladesh, and it does not get floods, almost at all

This devastating flood hits heavily in the northern and north-eastern part of Bangladesh. People are really stranded at those affected areas. Good thing is besides government many individual and organisations have come forward to helping these marooned people.

The inhabitants of Eastern and Northern part of Bangladesh still are facing a great devastate during this flood, as well as the authority of Bangladesh country haven't any concern in this regard. I think proper steps should be taken of this pandemic

india blocked the rivers normal flow as their political jealous with bangladesh. they make farakka against bangladesh and this scenario is normal for india and bangladesh now .they stop coming water from there side and make crisis for all people who are beside the river area. this things making climate restless and the river becoing angry and showing the natural disaster around india and bangladesh area where is the land is low this is not only they also stopped the system via politically when bangladesh govt want to save life's jointly wanted to working with india but india denied to make the changes. bangladsh wanted to save the climate but india destroying it with their nasty policies

[solapowsj]

Due to sea level rise, a small but strong downpour causes flooding in most coastal regions in India.

[Adamb]

This is why we protest we demand real actions to fight the climate crisis, people complaining about blocked traffic is ridiculous when our existence is on the table

[b.visconti]

This is awful! Bless the Millions upon Millions upon Millions upon Millions upon Millions of People Who Live There...🙏

[Kwippy]

Although India is very badly affected by climate change, India is refusing to take any action to combat it, claiming that Western persuasion for action is just a cynical attempt to hamper India's industrial progress.
