Rising waters global warming and the fate of the Pacific Islands
"Through personal stories of Pacific Islanders in Kiribati, the Samoas, the atolls of Micronesia including the Marshall Islands, and Hawaii, as well as researchers in the continental United States ... puts a human face on the international climate change debate ... While the policy makers and scientists argue about when and how much to reduce greenhouse gas emissions over the next twenty years, many Pacific Islanders are wondering if they will have a future"--Container.

"Through interviews and personal stories of Pacific Islanders living in Kiribati, the Samoas, the atolls of Micronesia, including the Marshall Islands and Hawaii, this program illustrates how the Pacific Islands are the first to feel the effects of rising sea levels caused by global warming."

"Through personal stories of Pacific Islanders, this program shows how global warming is not something that looms in the distant future, but is a threat whose first impacts may have already begun. Pacific Islanders take the viewer on a journey through several of the smallest nations on earth, and show what they believe are the first signs of global warming: unusual high tides, rogue waves and erosion that have swept several of the low-lying atolls of Micronesia, destroying crops and polluting fresh water supplies. Warmer waters are now killing off coral reefs and an increase in the frequency and intensity of hurricanes is making it difficult for island communities and ecosystems to recover."
