The thin atolls scattered across the Pacific Ocean are already seeing regular flooding and droughts directly related to climate change. More Marshallese are leaving in search of dry land, with nearly one-third of the population currently in the US. Many fear that with the exodus, their culture will be lost to a country that has already taken so much from them.

In middle school, my class had pen pals from the Marshall Islands. Sometimes I still think about her and wonder how she's doing...
There are lots of uninhabited islands in the North Pacific why didn't they use those to test?
I'm not sure climate change isn't cyclical. I do know cleaner energy and waste needs to change. And my heart goes out to these people. Sorry for treating your people terribly. But you won't be the first or last culture this government destroys.
Hard working beautiful people is all I see!
When that day comes to an end to our island, just how long can we all hold on to our culture. We have Marshallese people here in the US who have troubles speaking the language.
100 % sure these islands will disappear. Number one reason, erosion. That close to sea level every wave takes some of the island away. They are living on the the remains of a volcano. Soft rock that was eroded away by being blasted by waves and sand. A coral reef formed around this extinct , eroded away volcano. Coral reefs are different than volcanic rock. They are an under water " organism".
my respect to Marshallese people <3
just curious, why out of all states they decide to go to Arkansas?
Love your body for your soul rather than things on Earth.
Truly enjoyed watching it. :D
Can someone tell me what month & year this video came out?
How long do folks have to respond?
This sucks because everyone is living to another country and one day I will come back
Beautiful humble speaking 🙏☝️⚜️💯
wow great editing...
Or any where
it never ceases to amaze me the extent to which people have no idea how serious the changes related to climate change are... Places like the Marshall Islands are done for. people the first world are under some illusion that if we drive Prius cars and recycle we can stop by the change. the problem is we have release too much heat into the environment. we will all experience massive changes many of us will die because of these changes do to scarcity comma War comma disease cetera
how they lossing the culture it may evolved but it the old folk keep teaching the young it more harder to disapiar as the Italian or Chinese it evolved but never disappear
that waving is kind of..
