Description

This is a topographic map designed to emphasize portions of Bangladesh that are near sea level and hence could potentially be vulnerable to sea level rise.

With a population of ~150 million, Bangladesh is the 7th most populous country on Earth and has the highest population density of any country larger that 2000 km² in area. As large portions of Bangladesh are near sea level, sea level rise here has the potential to displace tens of millions of people.
