Pacific Island Nation Of Vanuatu's Way Of Life Threatened By Climate Change

TANNA, VANUATU - DECEMBER 3: People sing in a traditional village which was wiped out by Cyclone Pam and rebuilt on December 03, 2019 in Tanna, Vanuatu. 25 percent of Vanuatu’s 276,000 citizens lost their homes in 2015 when Cyclone Pam, a category 5 storm, devastated the South Pacific archipelago of 83 islands while wiping out two-thirds of its GDP. Scientists have forecast that the strength of South Pacific cyclones will increase because of global warming. Vanuatu’s government is considering suing the world’s major pollution emitters in a radical effort to confront global warming challenges and curb global emissions, of which it is a very small contributor.
