Answer:

According to the article, the Sundarbans is an area in Bangladesh and India that is home to the world’s largest mangrove forest. Mangrove forests have adapted to flourish in salty water and provide protection against storms, as they can stop fast-rising water and strong winds. As sea levels rise, more of the mangroves are submerged, lessening their ability to stop flooding and wind damage. The destruction of the Sundarbans would result in storms having a much greater impact on the inland regions in the area. The destruction of the mangroves would force many people to leave the Sundarbans region and become environmental refugees.
