At the risk of sounding naive, I didn't know it was this bad. I didn't know entire islands were just...GONE.

If you don't believe in anthropogenic climate change, please go to a pacific islander and explain your worldview to them, face to face.

Wow, things have gotten that bad then. Sure this was only matter time but I didn't expect things to get this bad so soon. Maybe after 2 more years sure but not this soon.
