martinezlaura+FollowSundarbans Sinking? Sea Levels Are Rising FastThe Sundarbans, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to over 4.5 million people (plus Bengal tigers!), is literally sinking. Sea levels there are rising at double the global average, swallowing islands and threatening wildlife and locals. Women are left to collect prawns in salty water, risking their health, while families are forced to move. Climate change is hitting hard, and this natural storm barrier might not last much longer. Wild, right? #Science #Sundarbans #ClimateChange131Share
ashley89+FollowTourists Banned to Save Rare Wildlife!India just shut down all tourism in the Sundarbans for three months to protect its wild residents—think Bengal tigers, spotted deer, and hundreds of bird species! No fishing, no honey collecting, nothing. It’s all about giving animals space to breed and bounce back after crazy storms and climate chaos. Some folks want the ban to last even longer! Would you give up your summer trip to help save endangered animals? #WildlifeProtection #Sundarbans #EcoTravel #Travel456Share
