The first country in the world to be submerged by seawater: Tuvalu
Tuvalu will be the first country to be flooded by the sea, it is said that in 50 years Tuvalu will be flooded by the sea, because Tuvalu is located in the southern part of the Pacific Ocean, is composed of a number of small islands below 5 meters above sea level, but also the second small island country in the world, this island country has a land area of only 26 square kilometers, in the world's area ranked fourth to last, storms often attacked Tuvalu, living in this land people The people living in this land are very insecure and the whole country has been fighting against the rising sea level, but all have failed. Since 2001, the people of Tuvalu have been evacuated and gradually relocated to New Zealand.
The people of Tuvalu ask the world to apologize
A resident of Tuvalu said that the six billion people on earth should apologize to the people of Tuvalu, because the air conditioning of the city, the exhaust of cars and deforestation make the global warming, resulting in sea level rise, which makes Tuvalu's economy and life has been seriously affected, so that the people of Tuvalu have to leave their hometown in the background to work outside, and the people of Tuvalu who stay in their homeland are often threatened by tsunamis. Once the tsunami hit, the people of the island will have nowhere to hide and will probably lose their lives, but if there is no sea level rise, all this will not happen.
Sea level rise is not only due to global warming
Global warming is the root cause of sea level rise, but not the only cause. Thermal expansion of sea water and the effect of interglacial periods will cause glacial melting and sea level rise, so some island countries will not be able to avoid being submerged. The people of Tuvalu are innocent, but natural disasters like this one cannot be avoided. The good thing is that Tuvalu has a permanent population of less than 10,000 people and is also relocating, so I believe that everything will be fine in the future. In addition, there are few cities in China that will be flooded in 2100, and the rising sea level is a disaster that people around the world cannot avoid.
