This report details the findings of a two-person climate change task team mission to the Cook Islands during the period January 14-22 1992. The report outlines the possible impacts of climate change and consequent sea-level rise on the natural, physical, social and economic activities perceived by the authorities and organisations in the country. Possible response options were difficult to identify because local scientific information about impacts was not avaiable.
