Abstract

This article examines green-technology transfer-related challenges andoptions for Bangladesh, which is fadng impending inundation due to global warming-induced sea rise, under TRIPS. It deduces from TRIPS' flexibilities certain viable options for Bangladesh in acquiring green technology for its climate-risk management and minimisation. Climate cataclysms are compared with the global health crisis to stress the Doha generic drug deal to cover green-technology transfer to address public necessities in the widely-predicted submersible Bangladesh.
