The mangrove, the tiger and the people who live between them — what the delta is up against, and where our money goes.
What the delta is up against
The Sundarban is the largest mangrove forest in the world, and the only one with a tiger population adapted to it.
-
Rising, Saltier Water
Sea level rise and salinity are changing which mangrove species can hold the banks together.
-
Stronger Cyclones
Each severe storm takes embankments, freshwater ponds and years of planting with it.
-
Shared Ground
Tigers, fishers and honey collectors use the same creeks. Conflict here is a livelihood problem before it is a wildlife one.
Where it goes
Measured in mangroves, not moments.
A share of every expedition stays in the delta.
Planting, village stipends and equipment for the people who watch this forest daily.
We would rather fund the unglamorous parts — nets, torches, embankment work, school fees in the seasons when fishing is closed — than put our name on a signboard.
The encyclopedia is part of it too: what gets recorded is harder to lose quietly.
