BBC Media Action - Climate Asia Suriya Begum, Dhaka, Bangladesh Her perceptions: "She perceives changes in climate around her. Where previously there were six seasons now she only experiences two – summer and winter. She is very worried about this and changes to her environment.“ Her actions: "She has raised her bed above the ground in case of heavy rains or floods.“ Her needs: "She’d like to do more to respond to the impacts she’s feeling but she doesn’t feel she has enough resources or information about what to do. Other people around her aren’t doing more - which is also important as she values being respected and fitting in people around her. She wants more information on how to conserve and use the resources she has."
