Bangladesh Not Even Close to Being Underwater

(H/T: Tom Nelson). Science is wrong again. After predicting that global warming would cause sea levels to rise and areas like Bangladesh would surely be underwater, the opposite has happened: Bangladesh is actually gaining land. Scientists have studied 32 years’ worth of satellite imagery and found that Bangladesh is gaining 20 square kilometers of landmass annually. The IPCC predicted that Bangladesh would lose 17% of its landmass by 2050 due to anthropogenic climate change. While we’re not in the year 2050 yet, I think we can call this myth busted.
