Bangladesh's greenhouse gas emissions are NEGLIGIBLE. It's a predominantly rural country where one in every thousand people owns a car. They don't CONTRIBUTE to climate change, so therefore there's nothing more can they do to COMBAT climate change! And yet THEY are facing the brunt of the complications as a result of the carelessness of first world industrialized nations!

In future do your research before making aggravating statements like this that helps ignorance to flourish.

At 3:10 that's an in-land flood and that has nothing or little to do with global warming/climate change. We could have prepared ourselves for this because we get the same amount of rainfall every year. In few decades time we will complain about droughts

Soooo its' still a fact that the best solution is to spay and neuter all humans now. Much more humane and humans will never realize crime and greed don't pay. Animals and plants last forever, humanity is worth nothing and exists for a microsecond. You will realize it in the afterlife when humans are extinct forever.

[ZeroHumans]

Nope, wrong again :D Useless to explain stupid human why he's breathing oxygen. With no last 4 billion years you wouldn't have oxygen, forests, any of earth beauty to destroy or millions of species of animals that you like to torture and rip guts out of..or other humans Is that easier for your celled human brain? Who cares go kill a few thousand kids and die with all worthless human slime in 100 years. You LOST your wish to destroy other planets, why are you avoiding that fact lowlife human!!!
