**Traditional Approach to Balance of Payments (BOP):** The traditional approach views the BOP as an accounting statement and emphasizes maintaining a balance between the current account and the capital and financial account. It focuses on the current account balance, often under a fixed exchange rate system, and employs policy responses like exchange rate adjustments and import controls to address BOP imbalances. **Modern Approach to Balance of Payments (BOP):** The modern approach acknowledges increased economic interdependence and the role of structural factors in BOP imbalances. It places greater emphasis on capital flows, especially in a world of flexible exchange rates. Modern economists stress the importance of macroeconomic policies, international cooperation, and the use of advanced economic models to understand and address BOP issues, considering factors like income distribution and technological advancements.

3. Introduction
• Climate change is the biggest global health threat of the 21st century and is increasingly
recognized as a public health priority.
• According to Oxford Dictionary, Climate change is a change in global or regional climate
patterns, in particular a change apparent from the mid to late 20th century onwards and
attributed largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by the
use of fossil fuels.
• During this century, earth's average surface temperature rises are going to cross the safe
threshold of 2°C .
• In the year 2050, production of rice will decrease by 8% and that of wheat by 32%.

4. Introduction(contd.)
• Increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide levels emitting additional green house gas
emissions from soils, forests, and wetlands, leading to more warming.
• A one-meter rise in sea level could, for instance, flood 17% of Bangladesh's land area
• Recent studies have found that up to 12% of the world GDP is already at risk from
existing climate patterns
• Former Secretary-General of UN, Ban Ki-moon affirmed that climate change is an
"unholy brew“.

5. Climate changes in Bangladesh
• Bangladesh is projected to be 0.5 to 0.2°C warmer than today by the year 2030.
• A one-meter rise in sea level could, for instance, flood 17% of Bangladesh's land area
• Cyclones, drought and earth-quake are more frequent
• Rising salinity in biggest Mangrove-forest threatens the ecosystem of Sundarban.
• Greenhouse gas is pilling up in the atmosphere.
• Increasing greenhouse gas is depleting the ozone layer and thus giving access to many
harmful entities.

6. Result of Bangladesh’s climate change
• Bangladesh is set to disappear under the waves as mentioned by US government's NASA
space agency.
• The country has already begun to feel the effects of the climate change as flood periods
have become longer and the cyclones, droughts and earth quakes.
• Bangladesh is on course to lose 17% of its land and 30% of its food production and as a
result poverty will increase
• Since 1970, according to a statistics, about 39 million people have been displaced by
major natural calamities like flood and cyclone in the country till 2009.

7. Result of Bangladesh’s climate change(contd.)
• Rising sea level and salinity in Sundarban extinct the Bengal tiger and hundred of bird
species.

8. Challenges of Bangladesh’s climate change
• Bangladesh situated in largest delta in the world with five major river system.
• Due to geographical situation Bangladesh is generally is very flood prone area.
• Bangladesh is the most densely populated country with increasing birth rate.
• The population of Dhaka is growing at a rate of 4.4% per year, one of the highest in the
world.
• Bangladesh has a scare funding for fighting with climate change.

9. Conclusion with Preventive measures
• Improved surveillance and good public health information must be the top priority of
Government, will help disaster management.
• International Co-operation needed to effectively handle this global problem.
• Rehabilitation and proper management of climate migrant necessary from Government
side.
• A fund with good amount of money for managing the expense of climate change is
obligatory.
• Raising public awareness and controlling environmental degradation must be put-forth.
