Can Tuvalu Be Saved_
Can Tuvalu be saved? Thanks to climate change, Tuvalu, one of the world’s smallest, most remote island nations, is in a race against time. As rising sea levels threaten to make the country uninhabitable, this video explores Tuvalu's unprecedented challenges—not only environmental, but also legal, political, and existential. What happens to a sovereign state when it loses its territory? Can Tuvalu survive as a "state without land"? Here, we examine the future of Tuvalu, climate migration, and the evolving rules of international law. As the clock ticks, bold—sometimes desperate—strategies are being considered, from artificial islands to migration deals with Australia.
But this isn't just about Tuvalu, it’s a warning for the world. As global sea levels continue to rise due to climate change, millions living in low-lying areas could be displaced. Tuvalu's fate may soon befall nations like the Maldives, the Marshall Islands, and even coastal regions in the U.S. and Bangladesh. Ultimately, taking into account the geopolitical implications of climate change, international relations, and the future of sovereignty, the video poses the critical question: So, can Tuvalu be saved? And, if not, what happens to it and its people?
