Abstract:
Climate change is not an issue to be taken lightly. The pace of current civilization and its unlimited tendency to exploit nature has impacted almost every sphere of the planet. Not a single corner of the earth is safe. Even underdeveloped cities like Rajshahi, incorporating a minimum number of greenhouse emitting units, are exposed to the adversity of climate change. This study highlights how intensifying the result of climate change is and how it is threatening livelihoods. From the perspective of the local residents and the officials of the governing agencies, this study finds that the situation is concerning and livelihood is highly threatened. The study argues that climate change is an issue of concern even in the non-coastal cities in Bangladesh.
