Climate change is impacting on food security and biosecurity in the Pacific region by degradation of
food production areas (sea level rise, salinity, drought), devastation caused by extreme weather
events (cyclones, flooding) and impacts on recovery time such as replacement of lost crop
germplasm and the need to import food substitutes. The aim of this project was to identify the key
impacts of climate change on the unique cropping systems in four small Pacific nations (Tonga,
Vanuatu, Kiribati and Tuvalu). Information was collected by the development of a questionnaire
Scientist say climate change is already happening and temperatures will go on rising. They expect more extreme and more erratic weather. Sea levels will rise. hundreds of millions of poor people countries will be hit hardest.

Vanuatu is one of the most vulnerable countries in the world to climate change and disaster risks. The island nation experiences cyclones, storm surges, landslides, flooding and droughts, which may become more intense as a result of climate change. Vanuatu is also highly exposed to geophysical threats such as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and tsunamis, as well as human, animal and plant diseases, and human-caused disasters.
The Ocean is a natural and dynamic bridge that connects continents to continents and oceanic islands to islands. It is also a bridge between the living and the dead and between people and the marine resources upon which they rely. It is the bridge of life.
Climate change has been labelled the human rights challenge of the twenty-first century.
Human rights frameworks, such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, among others, must become part of the solution. We all have an obligation to prevent the foreseeable adverse effects of climate change and ensure that those affected by it have access to appropriate remedies and means of adaptation.
