Scientists estimate that Kiribati, along with other Pacific Islands like Tuvalu, are going to be completely underwater as early as 2050 due to global warming, which is causing the sea levels to rise dramatically. Therefore, thousands of I-Kiribati may likely be forced to leave their homes.
Kiribati has been urging world leaders at a multitude of international conferences on global warming and climate change to implement tougher measures to control global warming, only to be shut down by countries like China and Saudi Arabia (with others keeping quiet, like the United States).
What would you do if you knew your home was going to likely disappear within your lifetime? :/
