Approach
Small islands are responsible for few greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, but they will experience the worst effects through sea level rise and water shortages. Small islands must act now to be ready for these changes.Adaptation is the process by which communities prepare
for and cope with changes in the climate. Many small islands, represented
through the Alliance of Small Island States (AOSIS), are demanding assistance
from industrialised nations for this process. Research from the University of
East Anglia, UK in collaboration with the Caribbean Community Climate Change
