Game on how to get rid of or prevent disaster.
| SPaRCE runs a network of school & community weather stations receiving data on rainfall, temperature, humidity, etc. from all over the Pacific. It supplies weather measuring equipment free. It publishes a regular newsletter for schools & teachers that focuses on CC & DRR, with case studies, activities and experiments |
Most modern astronomers believe that the universe began about 15 billion years ago when a very dense mass of material exploded in the so-called BIG BANG. This explosion sent all the materials of the universe outward in all directions, so that our universe is still expanding. All the galaxies, stars, planets, asteroids and other bodies in the universe were formed or are forming from the gas and dust of this enormous explosion. New stars continue to be formed, while others die or disappear into “black holes”.
This is a course outline provided by the Vanuatu Institude of teachers college providing infomation on learning about the planet Earth.
This booklets consist of information on the possible causes and impacts of climate change that is affecting our natural resources such as earthquakes,cyclones,landslides.It also gives instructions and advices to people on how to get prepared the recent issues of climates changes that is recently occuring.Its all written in English and Bislama
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
The potential environmental, economic and social impacts of Climate and Sea Level Change motivate Vanuatu’s commitment to participating effectively in international effort to combat global warming and Sea Level Rise. Vanuatu is a party to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), and took an active part in the initial negotiations in the development of the convention through its affiliations with Alliance of Small Island States (AOSIS) and Small Island Developing States (SIDS).
The Vanuatu’s Inventory for Greenhouse Gases has been calculated for the base year 2000 using the revised 1996 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories. The UNFCCC software “Non Annex1 National Greenhouse Gas Inventory Software, Version 1.3.3” has been used for the estimation of GHG. Sectoral data for GHG estimation was compiled from various sources primarily using national data collected from annual reports, statistical reports, studies and brochures of related department/ institutions.
