Rising sea levels are a ticking time bomb that will rapidly increase flooding in small island nations. Ecosystem degradation will decrease the provision of resources to the millions of people inhabiting small islands, resulting in severe impacts on settlements and infrastructure, food and water security, health economies, culture, and migration.
Learning Objectives:
The poster presentation will provide a simplified overview of the research topic and summarize the problem, highlighting unique research results and observations. This will enable all participants to compare climate crises' potential impact on large and small nations. Additionally, the map and statistics featured on the poster will help them visualize which areas are at high risk of being impacted by rising sea levels.
Upon the conclusion of the poster presentation, attendees will have acquired a heightened comprehension of the impact of climate change on small islands. Such knowledge may inspire them to delve deeper into the subject matter and urge the international community to take prompt and effective action.
