"A death sentence" for small islands
Marshall Islands, front IPCC Vulnerability Report Marshall Islands, side
Marshall Islands delegate Espen Ronneberg said that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report on Regional Impacts of Climate Change, distributed to negotiators Friday, represents a "death sentence" for his and other low lying island states. Assessing vulnerability in 10 regions, the report says 9 of the 10 most vulnerable countries are island states, and "'profound' impacts for the Marshall Islands, Tuvalu and Kiribati could be "disappearance in the worst-case scenario."
