Island nations vow to fight on against climate change
Original: 'We're not giving up': Beset by climate change, island nations act as conscience of a warming world
Small island nations, facing rising seas and intensifying storms, are pressing the world to act on climate change despite their limited power. In an AP-reported story picked up widely by US outlets, leaders from these countries describe themselves as the 'conscience of a warming world' and declare 'we're not giving up', urging larger emitters to cut emissions and help vulnerable nations adapt to an existential threat.
Why now: The story is being widely syndicated as island nations' plight highlights the gap between climate pledges and action.
