Chattogram, Bangladesh
A traffic jam of hand carts and trucks jockey for entrance to the fish market of Chattogram, Bangladesh. Fish are about half of the protein in the Bangladeshi diet, in a country where the UN FAO estimates that 50% of the population suffers from a lack of protein. Overfishing in the Bay of Bengal has drastically reduced wild fish populations.
