Introduction Tildanga, Kamarkhola, and Sutarkhali under Dacope Upazila of Bangladesh are climate-stressed coastal unions, highly susceptible to recurrent hydroclimatic challenges anthropogenic interruptions such as cyclones, storm surges, flooding, waterlogging, salinity intrusion, erratic rainfall. These significantly impact water resources, agriculture, prevailing livelihoods. Given the increasing vulnerability communities, it is crucial understand local perceptions climate hazards, their socio-economic impacts, adaptation mitigation strategies implemented enhance resilience. Methods This study adopts a mixed-method approach, incorporating 150 structured questionnaire surveys, six focus group discussions, 15 key informant interviews, in-depth interviews. The research explores community risks, grassroots innovations, adaptive responses aimed at mitigating adverse effects change. Results Findings indicate that communities have adopted various combat challenges, including climate-resilient rainwater harvesting, homestead vegetation, mixed cropping with fish culture, opting for saline-tolerant varieties, elevated housing, disaster preparedness measures. However, financial limitations, inadequate technical knowledge, lack proper training, institutional gaps hinder sustainability scalability these strategies. For instance, although solar power-based management infrastructure proven effective, implementation remains restricted due resource limitations stakeholder participation. Additionally, gender-responsive approach has empowered women contributors household resilience inclusive Discussion A comparative analysis reveals Kamarkhola more vulnerable cyclones floods, whereas Tildanga primarily affected by intrusion. further examines effectiveness governance in addressing rates, livelihood occupational patterns, stress, declining agricultural productivity. Addressing essential strengthening ensuring human security. Finally, advocates policy recommendations integrate support, foster engagement promote long-term stability climate-vulnerable regions.

Green spaces play a critical role in enhancing the urban environment, improving livability, and providing essential ecosystem services. A city should have at least 25% green space from an environmental health point of view. However, quantitative estimation is required to assess extent pattern changes for proper management. The present study aimed identify track within Dhaka South City Corporation (DSCC) Bangladesh over 30-year period (i.e., 1991–2021). Geospatial techniques were utilized analyze dynamics using Landsat 4–5 TM satellite images 1991, 2001, 2011 8 2021. Supervised image classification Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) analysis performed DSCC. results our revealed significant 36.5% reduction vegetation cover DSCC area period. In coverage was 46%, indicating relatively healthy environment. By this had declined sharply 21.3%, further decreasing 19.7% 2011, reaching low just 9.5% classified maps generated validated through field observations Google Earth images. outcomes will be helpful policymakers planners developing applying appropriate policies plans preserve improve other Asian megacities with high population density.

Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) are widely recognized for their support of biodiversity conservation and forest restoration in tropical developing countries. In the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHTs) Bangladesh, ethnic forest-dependent communities have long maintained Village Common Forest (VCF), an ancestral managed community well-being. recent years, some VCFs CHT received from local international NGOs due to perceived role supporting biodiversity, ecosystem services, improving livelihoods. Although such remains limited, its impacts on vegetation not yet fully investigated. present study, we used remote sensing techniques field surveys measure cover changes tree diversity selected area. Our findings indicate that condition were better NGO-supported compared with those without NGO intervention. Based our recommend increasing involvement VCF management a more holistic ecosystem-based approach, fostering institutional cooperation addressing land ownership issues, market capacity science-based CHT.
