The issue of loss and damage must be addressed, including global sharing of responsibility for climate migrants displaced by sea-level rise, salinity increase, river erosion, floods, and draughts.
This is one of the four points put forward by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to the world leaders to fight climate change.
She was addressing the 26th Session of the Conference of the Parties (COP26) of United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) yesterday.
In the first point, Hasina said the major emitters must submit ambitious NDCs (Nationally Determined Contributions), and implement those.
