"Environmental Refugees Unable to Return Home" [1]

"DHAKA, BANGLADESH -- Mahe Noor left her village in southern Bangladesh after Cyclone Sidr flattened her family's home and small market in 2007. Jobless and homeless, she and her husband, Nizam Hawladar, moved to this crowded megalopolis, hoping that they might soon return home.

Two years later, they are still here."

Joanna Kakissis reports for the New York Times January 3, 2010. [2]
