Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina denounces 'tragedy' of rich nations on climate

A country of fertile, densely populated deltas, low-lying Bangladesh is among the most vulnerable nations in the world to climate change.

But the urgency of the situation is not being matched by the actions of countries responsible for emissions, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina said. “They don’t act. They can talk but they don’t act,” she told AFP.
