Abstract

This policy brief examines how rising urban heat stress in Bangladesh is linked to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from key sectors, especially agriculture and industry. The objective is to understand the long-run relationship between sectoral emissions and heat stress, and to recommend solutions for building climate-resilient and sustainable cities in Bangladesh.
