Following the Tropic of Cancer through Bangladesh, Simon Reeve meets villagers already losing their homes and land to climate change. Bangladeshis already have to contend with cyclones and arsenic-contaminated drinking water, but experts believe rising sea levels will inundate vast areas of Bangladesh, a catastrophe in the most densely-populated large country in the world.
Simon's epic trip around the Tropic of Cancer is his toughest journey yet. The spectacular adventure takes him through 18 countries on the northern edge of Earths tropical zone. Starting in Mexico he travels east through the glorious Caribbean, to a stunning desert oasis in North Africa, across India and Asia, and on a dangerous, covert incursion into the remote hills of western Burma.
