MAY 21, 2021

Rising sea levels and increased intensity of storm surges are playing a considerable role in the degradation of coastal regions in the Pacific Islands. The increased intensity of storm surges coupled with the ineffectiveness of the coral reef barrier is leading to considerable coastal erosion in the Pacific Islands.

Changing conditions can make the sea ice less predictable and more dangerous for hunters, compromise ice cellars that are used for food storage, and accelerate damaging coastal erosion. Climate change is also affecting the Arctic Ocean ecosystem, including its marine mammals, sea birds, fish and other marine species.
