  • Mamtaz Begum, 35,  sits with her daughter Neherum, 17, and family in her house in the fishing village of South Tetulbarian in Barguna Sadar upazila  in Bangladesh  October 20, 2010 . Her husband died in a boat accident after capsizing because violent weather. Her mother died later in a cyclone and now she is left with 4 children to feed and very little means to support them. Because of climate change, the seas are getting more violent, less predictable and boats are capsizing more frequently. Twenty percent of the women in this village are widows because so many have lost their husbands in the seas. Coastal and fishing populations are particularly vulnerable and Fishing communities in Bangladesh are subject not only to sea-level rise, but also flooding and increased typhoons. Erosion as a result of stronger and higher tides, cyclones and storm surges is eating away Bangladesh's southern coast.  Yet the largely fishing community cannot live without the sea. "We only know how to catch fish," say the fishermen. ( Ami Vitale)
