Many people are uneducated. A big supporter of airport expansion in Luton is the town’s large Bangladeshi population who believe what their imams tell them and who in turn get their information from the town’s Muslim councillors, who are equally uneducated. I guess the ones that are educated think their relatives will be allowed to settle in the U.K. for humanitarian reasons.

Despite producing only 0.56% of the global emissions changing our climate, Bangladesh ranks seventh on the list of countries most vulnerable to climate devastation
The data shows that from 2000 to 2019, Bangladesh suffered economic losses worth $3.72 billion and witnessed 185 extreme weather events due to climate change.
It has been estimated that by 2050, one in every seven people in Bangladesh will be displaced by climate change. Specifically, with a projected 19.6 inch (50 cm) rise in sea level, Bangladesh may lose approximately 11% of its land by then, and up to 18 million people may have to migrate because of sea-level rise alone.
