A cynic would say this declaration is about accessing “development” or “aid” dollars

Maybe they could learn from the Dutch and claim land from the sea.

Pacific Island leaders have declared climate change as the foremost threat to the livelihoods...”

Because they are being offered WEF billions to spread the lie. Win/win.

This article is a classic case of assuming their conclusion with zero evidence of anything.

Garbage journalism at its worst.

Seas have been rising for thousands of years. Long before liberal “scientists” declared global warming to be a problem.
