New publication by Dieter Reinhardt
The Heinrich Böll Foundation has published Dieter Reinhardt's study
'Coal, Capital and Conflict, The Rampal Power Plant in Bangladesh, the
Protection of the Sundarbans and the Role of German Companies'. In it,
he describes the causes for the extreme endangerment
of the Sundarbans, the largest contiguous mangrove forest area in the
world. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, covers a large part of the
coast of Bangladesh and is a natural protective barrier against the
increasingly strong cyclones in the Bay of Bengal
triggered by climate change. Only a few kilometres north of this
protected area, the "Rampal" coal-fired power plant is being built, in
which the Stuttgart-based company Fichtner GmbH is significantly
involved.
