dc.descriptionThis graphic narrative follows a fisherman from southwest Bangladesh who travels to the capital to protest a coal-fired power plant threatening the Sundarbans and local livelihoods. It outlines the ecological importance of the mangrove forest, the risks from industrial pollution and shipping, and existing environmental pressures. The account documents organised protests, broad public participation, and violent suppression by authorities. It concludes by noting ongoing forest loss, continued project development, and escalating environmental and social consequences affecting ecosystems and communities.en
