What Really Happened In Vanuatu
What Really Happened In Vanuatu
When the world came to a halt, a land that emerges from the sea, also known as Vanuatu, has lived a different experience from the rest of us all!
Vanuatu is a hidden, semi-unknown and unspoiled paradise 2000 kilometers from the eastern coast of Australia, consisting of 83 volcanic islands, each one different from the other, some huge other simple atolls with colorful coral reefs, small fishing towns, indigenous villages and majestic volcanic peaks.
But before we look into what really happened in these mystical islands right before the world came to a halt and if we can now actually all enter the island, let’s first discover the blissfulness of this place and why it should be visited!

Travel writing a disappearing Oceania—w/ J. Maarten Troost: Reversing Climate Change podcast S2E9
One of the many tragedies of the climate crisis is that the people least responsible will be the first to suffer. Among the regions where this is playing out is in the atoll nations of Oceania, an area of small islands in the Pacific where it feels ‘more like being on a boat than a continent.’
J. Maarten Troost is the travel writer behind such titles as The Sex Lives of Cannibals, Getting Stoned with Savages and Headhunters on My Doorstep. He spent multiple years in Kiribati in the Equatorial Pacific as well as Fiji and Vanuatu. On this episode of the Reversing Climate Change, Maarten joins Ross to explain how he came to spend time in the region of Oceania and offer insight around the provocative titles for his books and the egalitarian nature of island culture.
Maarten goes on to describe how climate change is impacting the area, explaining why these atoll nations will be uninhabitable within 30 years and what the people there are doing to prepare for this inevitability. Listen in to understand why Maarten is pessimistic about our ability to make systemic change before it’s too late and hear his take on the role of the travel writer in the age of climate change.

Climate change is the single most important global environmental and development issue facing the world today. Tourism is considered to be a vulnerable and highly climate-sensitive economic sector. Climate defines the length and quality of tourism seasons and plays a major role in destination choice and tourist spending. Climate affects a wide range of environmental resources that are critical attractions for tourism, such as snow conditions, wildlife productivity and biodiversity, water levels and quality. Climate also has an important influence on environmental conditions that can deter tourists, including infectious disease, wildfires, insect or water-borne pests, and extreme events such as tropical cyclones. At the same time, tourism is a contributor to Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, including emissions from transport, accommodation and activities. In this session we will explore the implications of climate change and climate policy for tourism sectors and destinations around the world, adaptation and mitigation responses by all major tourism stakeholders, and the integral links between climate change and sustainable tourism.

Climate change never felt more real to my eyes until I arrived here in KIRIBATI - a small island nation in the Central Pacific Ocean.
The rising sea levels are quickly shrinking this country, which has a peak altitude of 3 meters. It's projected to be entirely underwater by the year 2100.
While many countries are feeling the impacts of climate change, nobody is more threatened right now than the 100,000+ residents of Kiribati.
The question now becomes, how do we prevent the people here from becoming climate refugees? The only 4 options I can think of are the following:
1. Build a higher sea wall (which will cost billions of USD)
2. Buy land overseas for them to relocate (will also cost a fortune)
3. Send more Kiribati citizens abroad (i.e. Australia and New Zealand) for jobs, and they can slowly adapt to a new life
4. Boost tourism in Kiribati so people can see firsthand the effects of climate change, which will also pump money back into the economy
Would love to get your thoughts on what we can do to help the wonderful people of Kiribati. I encourage you all to get creative and share your best solutions below. I will be reading and responding to as many comments as I can, and I encourage you to do the same. This is important.

Traditional knowledge adaptation to climate change | VTV World
The Mekong Delta is one of the regions that are most vulnerable to climate change. The weather changes have caused a lot of damage to people's lives. However, the experience of previous generations has helped people adapt to the ever-changing living environment. The locals have even improved their farming methods to bring economic benefits.

PD 17 – The Road to COP 28: Action towards Climate Change and Health
The COP27 climate conference in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, took place during a global polycrisis, with ongoing energy, food, and health crises, and increasingly severe extreme weather events. Climate change is already affecting people’s health and will continue to do so at an accelerating rate unless urgent action is taken. The direct damage cost to health is estimated to be between US$ 2–4 billion per year by 2030.
COP28 in Dubai, the UAE, represents a critical inflection point in responding to these growing threats, including by delivering solutions to accelerate the global energy transition, and building bridges to advance global efforts that will support the Global South and countries that are most vulnerable.
The delivery of the first Global Stocktake will be one of the main legacies of COP28, and a crucial process to drive further ambition, sectoral action, cooperation, and support in this decade and beyond.
Health can be a powerful argument for increased ambition at COP28 and in the Global Stocktake; for example, the economic case for climate action makes clear that the health benefits far outweigh the costs of meeting the Paris goals. The concrete and measurable potential of climate commitments to protect lives, health and wellbeing of global populations would be a powerful benchmark of progress, and would motivate further action.
A Regenerative Agritourism Pathway for the Pacific Islands - June 2023
In the June 2023 meeting of the Sustainable and Regenerative Agriculture and Agritourism committee, the Global Agritourism Network welcomes Dr. Cherise Addinsall, Adjunct Fellow, University of Sunshine Coast , Member of the Australian Centre for Pacific Islands Research.
This presentation is based on the outcomes of two Critical Participatory Action Research (CPAR) projects conducted in the Pacific Islands between 2018-2023 funded by the Australian Centre for International Agriculture Research (ACIAR) through the University of Sunshine Coast and supported by the Australian Centre for Pacific Islands Research and European Development Fund.
The CPAR process led by Indigenous Pacific Islanders developed a definition, standards, criteria and categories for Regenerative agritourism with a particular focus on protecting Indigenous land management knowledge systems, climate mitigation and adaptation, land sovereignty, decolonisation of land and food systems and rural Indigenous livelihoods in the Pacific.

VANUATU ISLAND | A Pacific Island Adventure | Tour | Things To Do
Vanuatu is, first and foremost, a beautifully untouched South Pacific nation. Decorated by the volcanic mountain ranges that are so common in the region, there are plenty of natural wonders to see and experience.
Vanuatu appeals to tourists because of the country’s unique mix of unspoilt natural beauty and resort-style accommodation. There are plenty of jungle trails, villages and coastlines to explore, plus cruise ships often stop just out to sea to explore the reefs that lie below the surface of surrounding clear blue waters.

Let's Talk About the Weather
In recent years, more and more artists and institutions are using their platforms to address environmental issues: ocean pollution, climate change, the melting of the polar ice-caps. But is this increasing interest only a trend, or is it possible for artists and their artworks, as well as institutions and their programs, to have a positive impact on our relationship with nature? This panel will involve artists and institutional figures whose focus lies on ecology, asking them to elaborate on their relationship to the subject matter, and on the ability of their work to improve our planet's condition.

BEST PROTECTED AREA EVER in Vanuatu!
The tiny village of Khole on the island of Santo in Vanuatu, is home to the only Indigenous owned certified forest carbon project in the Pacific which protects super rare lowland rainforests, cleans up degraded secondary forests, plants trees and helps sustainable local development. If this wasn't enough I was taken around by Carl who had some of the most beautiful thoughts on why we should conserve I've ever heard!
The Battle of Mold. Ep.2 in Vanuatu
Getting amongst it in our home in the Pacific Islands.
We get some hydraulic action to clear trees, land and build a big french drain system to move water away from the property.
New furniture arrived so that was a spin out with the makeover. Made a huge change & Cat utilized her handy skills from yachts to create some 'mental health' areas (I love to call them!)
Lots of clearing and getting rid of moisture (and mold) that plagues these parts of the world.
Cat still working, I'm still filming. Fair play!
Cheers,
Cat + Lewy
Mele cascades ||Vanuatu ????????|| #shorts 4k
The Mele Cascades in Vanuatu is a must see while visiting Port Vila, Vanuatu .
After departing from your Port Vila accommodation, it is only a short 15 minute drive to Mele Gardens. Enjoy a refreshing swim at Mele Cascades after hiking to the lookout to grab some fantastic panoramic holiday shots. Cool drinks and tropical fruit are also served on the overwater deck.
Mele Cascades are formed by the river flowing over a series of limestone terraces. The tallest waterfall is about 35m high, with a natural pool and swimming hole at it’s base. Around the falls is thick jungle and moss-covered rocks, with the warm climate of Vanuatu making a swim here very tempting!
