Presidents of Iceland, Bangladesh to discuss global climate change in New Orleans
Date:10/26/2007

>

Also on Nov. 5 from 5:30 to 6 pm, President of Bangladesh Iajuddin Ahmed will present Bangladesh: Problems of Global Warming, Land Inundation, and Arsenic Poisoning in room R03-R05 of the Convention Center. Afterwards will be a Q&A for media at 6 pm.

IPCC impact assessments identify Bangladesh as one of the most susceptible countries of the world, Ahmed says. These impacts range from an overall increase in sea level, atmospheric temperature and rainfall to more intense natural disasters in the form of floods, cyclones, storm surges, drought and others consequential impacts, which will have severe impacts upon agriculture.

President Ahmed will also address arsenic water poisoning, population increases, and riverbank erosion, which threaten agricultural and economic sustainability. He is a former soil science professor at Dhaka University.
