This interactive is a collection of 4 videos adapted from the Micronesia Conservation Trust examine environmental changes occurring in Micronesia and the steps people are taking to respond to them.
- In “The Problem,” fishermen discuss why things are “not right” in Micronesia; for example, fish stocks are declining and coral reefs are dying.
- In “The Cause,” we learn that these effects are linked to global climate change.
- In “The Greenhouse Effect,” we learn more about the science behind climate change.
- In “Adaptation,” we see how Micronesians are trying to reduce the harmful effects of climate change to preserve their homeland and secure their heritage.
