居住在海岸边的人们 Captions-Life Along the Coastline
居住在海边和河岸的孟加拉人们,已不止一次失去家园。气候变化,也在改变着他们的生活。飓风、洪水、河流侵蚀,摧毁他们生活中的一切。他们不得不从一座小岛迁往另一座小岛,从岛上的这个地区搬到那个地区。有的老人一生搬过15次家,有的人甚至不记得自己
最初在哪里居住。失去家园,迁徙,挣扎着生活的人们,就是这组图片的主题。Their
homes are not far from the sea. Their homes are not far from the mighty rivers.
And they have lost their homes many times. With climate change they change their
lives. Sporadic cyclone, flood, river erosion destroy and destroy. They migrate
from one island to another, from one part of the island to the other. You would
meet old guys who have changed their homes fifteen times in one life span. Some
even have forgotten where his first home was.It’s a story of migration, losing
homes and finally trying to survive!

01.被水淹没的院子。 Once a homely yard, now it goes under tidal water. This used to
be the place where children played and people dreamed. One day the river came
alive. The furious waves snatched away everything – dream, hope, and future.

02.由于气候变化的影响,河流侵蚀加剧,居住在河岸边的人们不断失去赖以生存的土地。 Every year, river erosion makes
many people landless. Caring Char has been losing its landmass for a long time.
Thousands are becoming homeless every year-an immediate effect of climate change
in the coastal area of Bangladesh.

03.人们不得不面对每年一次的洪水。 Like every year flood has come to the coastal areas. Its a
regularity to face flood every year for the people in Khulna.

04.昆桑的家已经在洪水中浸泡了15天。 Like every year flood has come to the coastal areas. Its
a regularity to face flood every year for the people in Khulna. Kulsum's home is
under water for last 15 days.

05. 渔民卡迪没有地,也没有船。听说博叶查镇政府给当地人分土地,他一个月前大老远跑过去,希望也能拥有自己的土地。Karim is a fisherman
who has neither a boat nor a land. He has heard that people are getting their
own land in Boyer Char with the help of the government of Bangladesh. He
traveled a long way to reach Boyer char a month ago waits and hopes that
someday, like others, he will have land of his own.

06.乔森娜曾经幸福的生活,恩爱的丈夫,一小片肥沃土地,一夜之间支离破碎。河水带走了一切,房子和家当被冲走了,土地被淹没了,丈夫出去工作没有再回来。每天看着四个挨饿的孩子,乔森娜失去了生活下去的勇气。
Jossna Ara Begum had everything – a husband, and some arable land. One night the
river swallowed everything – the house, the land, and all the belongings. Her
husband left home to find work and never came back. Everyday when she looks at
her four starving children, Jossna wants to commit suicide.

07. 飓风夺走了拉辛生活的全部,妻子,儿子和家园。The hurricane has snatched everything that Rahim
Mia has ever had -his home, one son and his beloved wife.

08.洪水为渔民带来了生计。 The flood has brought a lot of fish in the river Meghna, a
fisherman catching fish in the river .

09.在自然的怜悯下生活的人们,常常用各种方式寻求安全庇护。 In a place where a human being constantly
lives at the mercy of nature, people subconsciously seek ways to feel secure- A
man praying under the sky.

10.洪水过后,该回家了。 Dusk settling down in the lovable land of Boyar Char. Be it
humans, be it cattle, it is time for everybody to go home. |
