But the nature that saved me is in danger itself. From multiple, many-layered threats, the worst of which is climate change. And when nature is in danger, the people are in danger.

In the past year climate-fuelled storms have flooded innumerable villages in my home country of Bangladesh, destroyed crops, and caused millions to flee their homes. Smoke from climate-fuelled forest fires gave my little brother a life-threatening asthma attack. Droughts have been hitting the Horn of Africa about every second year. In 2020 a swarm of locusts ravaged crops in India. A year prior to that a landslide in Africa caused a man to lose his family. And we all remember how the loosening polar vortex left families in Texas without heat or water.
