(T) Effects of Climate Change

• Increased levels of pollution by saltwater are affecting the soil and therefore preventing farming.
• Wells on the islands are being polluted by seawater.
• Droughts are becoming a more common issue due to climate change.
• Coastal erosion has affected some of the islands, eroding productive land for valuable crops.
• The islands are battered by powerful waves that threaten people’s homes and flood roads.
• The main runway is under threat from flooding, therefore preventing communication and transport of goods into the island.
