Flooding looks set to be a bigger problem, according to new work published in Nature.
Researchers say efforts to calculate flooding risk from climate change do not take into account the effect carbon dioxide (CO2) has on vegetation.
The higher the level of atmospheric CO2, the more the pores tighten up or open for short periods.
This effect is not all bad;
Areas with higher predicted rainfall have a greater risk of flooding. But this effect also reduces the severity of droughts.
But I don't think many Bangladeshis will be too impressed.

Strangely enough - I wasn't a fan of the Flaming Lips at first either. Then I saw them live at a summer festival and got totally hooked. So I can't begrudge you your resistance.
