Climate change

For the past few days we have been reading a text on how Climate change has affected Kiribati. It is about how families in Kiribati are struggling with living with climate change, so some has been forced to move and others have decided to go find a safer and better place for them and there family to live in. The Australian Government has studied on how Climate Change is affecting our pacific islands, also found out that Kiribati could have a slight chance of being underwater. Most Micronesian people have had complaints on how bigger countries in the world may forget about them and that we should not be worried.Image 2.

Traditional Kiribati houses are made from wood from the trunk of coconut and pandanus trees are lashed together with string made from the fibers of coconut husks.

  2. Hi Aumau,

    I liked the way you described and told about how Kiribati is sinking slowy. I like how you wrote that Kiribati is struggling with climate change, so that we know what to do to prevent other countries from climate change.
