7 Countries will Disappear in Your Lifetime ????????

Sinking countries due to climate change. #sinkingIslandsClimateChange For those seven paradise islands scattered across the Pacific and Indian Oceans, we know exactly why they started sinking, and now at a rate much faster than previously thought. This climate change report 2021 was published by the UN IPCC and tag it a s a Code Red for humanity. Ida hurricane and other extreme weather is a direct result of climate change. in addition climate change is a direct factor triggering climate regufees. Thanks to Global Citizen and other initiative, we may be able to reduce the climate change effect on humans. but can you fix climate change?

Rising water is just one of many scary things that could happen if the polar ice mountains continue to melt. Climate change is very serious and has a long lasting effect for many generations to come especially for these small islands such as Micronesia, Maldives, Palau and others

Tuvalu - On the Front Line of Climate Change [2019]

Located in a remote corner of the Southwest Pacific Ocean, this tiny paradise is on the front line of climate change.

The 4th smallest country in the world, it has an average elevation of just a few metres above sea level. This makes it especially vulnerable to sea level rise, coastal erosion and flooding which continues to threaten its 11,000 residents.

Will the world listen to the plight of small island nations in the Pacific before it is too late?

Climate Risk for Councils Workshop

Tuesday 16 October, 2018

Councils now face unprecedented legal liabilities and financial risks if they fail to address obligations arising from climate change. Those who fail to mitigate, adapt to or disclose climate risks in their governance and decision-making will expose themselves to legal liabilities – including potentially breaching fiduciary duties. With climate risks now occupying the minds of mainstream investors, those not addressing climate risks will increasingly struggle to access affordable finance and insurance.

On Tuesday 16 October, Resilient South and Resilient Hills & Coasts collaborated to host a series of workshops to understand the legal and financial implications of climate change for councils in South Australia.

Bridging Arctic Islands [Virtual Island Summit]

The Arctic is an island region, with examples being the Aleutians, Greenland, Ellesmere Island, Svalbard, and Zemlya Georga. Island cities include the capitals of territories and countries such as Nunavut and Iceland as well as settlements along Alaska’s and Norway’s shores such as Shishmaref and Tromsø. The Arctic Ocean is arguably a seasonally ever-shifting amalgamation of ice islands.

Within these island complexities, societies develop and thrive, with the rapidity of social and environmental changes leading to both islanding and de-islanding of the peoples and places–often by the same processes. The resurgence of Arctic identities and the forging of islander links around the region reinforces both Arcticness and islandness. Meanwhile, assumptions of improved regional access and the apparent desire from some to create a scramble for resources and opportunities connects with people outside the Arctic.

This panel explores these manifold bridges among and beyond Arctic islands, indicating understandings of directions sought and the realism of achieving the goals. Would increased Arctic transport connections improve options and/or exponentially increase disaster risk? Given the virtualness of this summit, how are virtual bridges built and wrecked? What politics and policies are needed to ensure that Arctic island bridges are created, maintained, and shut down through leadership of the peoples living in the locations?

Speakers:
•Dwayne Menezes, Founder and Managing Director of Polar Research and Policy Initiative
•James Stockan, Leader of the Orkney Islands Council
•Patrizia Isabelle Duda, PhD scholar at University College London (UCL)
•Alice Rogoff, Founder of ArcticToday
•Martin Mohr Olsen, MRes (Research Masters) in Political Research
•Inga Burton, University Engagement Manager at Highlands and Islands Enterprise.

The Virtual Island Summit 2019 was a free and entirely online event designed to connect global islands to share their common experiences through a digital platform. Almost 5,000 islanders from 500 islands took part. Learn more:
