  • Thats my islannd :'( It's soo sad! I live in New Zealand now, but i can't just see this go down :( my mum wil be so sad if its on the news that it has sunck :(

  • @MegaGreenLeaves Perhaps if, like myself, you could witness the migration of these people first hand, and also if you could see the way in which their culture is not adapting well to the change which seems to have been unnaturally forced upon it, you might not be so skeptical. But a little skepticism is a good thing as long as one continues to seek truth. Maybe the story here is not so much a treatise on climate change as it is a discussion on the demise of a way of life.

  • Saw this film on plane,very impressed!

  • anyone knows where i can watch the full thing ?

  • @steveo20007 well siberia or artic.. its the same, humans have a big problem, and we are the only ones that can resolvem... lets hope, that economical things dont get in front off the survival of ur race. but the thing is that are persons in 21st century, that thing all off this things are a lobby from goverments to get control of us.... stupid thing. well is like i said, we have to get hope on ourselfs.

  • @Tuga2Atitude deep stuff. the artic is important yes and shit is definitely gonna go down when that sucker disappears. I guess its a double whammy though, siberia sits on like a bigillion cubic pounds of methane which is 20 times stronger than CO2

  • @lvarelaa Actually the Island isn't volcanic it's a coral atoll... maybe if you're wrong about this you might just be wrong about the other facts... This doco isn't really concerned with what caused the seal level rise we are experiencing, it's not pointing the finger at anyone, rather it's asking what are we going to do about the problem?

  • @Tuga2Atitude - I don't care what you believe. I don't care if we are in the 21st century or in the first century, global climate has change always and nothing has to do with man global warming, it's natural and yes the island is sinking it's a volcanic island. Don't let politicians put their fingers in your mouth, grow-up.

  • @lvarelaa please, dont be stupid, in 21st century, say that everything is just fine, and nothing was change, its a commentary from a retard person..

  • @steveo20007 humm, i dont think siberia is the 1º concern, the artic yes, there is a fucking great problem, but i think we humans can resolve that.... people have faith in good, a thing that doenst exist... so why dont we have faith in humanity, at least is real.
