The Sundarbans

Jean: Today, I’m talking to Dr. Ruth Lowe, an expert on the Sundarbans region of
are
Bangladesh and India. Dr. Lowe, if you will be ready, we’ll start the interview now.
Can you explain why the Sundarbans are so important?

Dr. Lowe: Of course, Jean. First, the mangrove forests of the Sundarbans are home to wildlife
such as the Bengal tiger. These forests also protect the region from serious storms

that hit the coast every year. If the forests will disappear, millions of people will be
in danger. Unfortunately, people are harming the Sundarbans. If they do not stop,

they are in serious danger.
Jean: What exactly will happen if the mangroves will continue to disappear?

Dr. Lowe: Well, when people don’t stop destroying the mangroves, the Sundarbans won’t be

able to protect towns and cities on the coast from storms. If the storms will hit these
places, there will be a lot of damage, and people’s lives will be at risk.

Jean: That sounds like a real problem.
Dr. Lowe: Well, yes, it really is . . .
