Pou and Miri learn to tackle climate change

Abstract

Hello boys and girls. Climate change is the most talked about topic all over the world. This is because it will affect the lives of everyone, including all who live in our Pacific Islands. Scientists say that climate change might cause longer dry seasons and more rainfall during the wet season. They also say that our days may get hotter, our oceans warmer, and our sea levels higher. Our environment plays a big role in helping us tackle climate change. We can all play a part in helping reduce the impacts of climate change on our islands by taking care of our forests, our land, our mangroves and our reefs. By doing this we also help look after all the wonderful birds, animals, and fish that surround us. We hope this booklet will help show you some ways you can help tackle climate change. Now join Pou and Miri on their adventure. Happy reading! Dr Wulf Killmann, Programme Director, SPC/GIZ Coping with Climate Change in the Pacific Island Region Programme
