Sea Level Rise in India
Lakshan Mondal lives in Satjellia island and is one of the many people affected by sea level rise: "We could never believe there would be such floods. Though we live by the side of the river, we have experienced previous cyclones. We have seen cyclones of two hundred fifty kilometers speed. However, the flood that we have experienced now is something that we have never seen before. At present, my home has been washed away. Now we are living by the roadside. Afterwards what will we do, we don't know."

Climate Voices in Indian Sundarbans
The Sundarbans is the largest mangrove forest in the world, a particularly ecologically sensitive area. Scientists estimate that over 70,000 people will be displaced from the Sundarbans due to sea level rise by the year 2030.
