Your last link is about Tebunginako. That island was already identified in 1991 as suffering from ordinary coastal erosion and sandbank migration: https://spccfpstore1.blob.core.windows.net/digitallibrary-do... Although there is erosion near Tebunginako village centre, there is an accreting area north of the village centre where trees are systematically being planted to reclaim the accreted area. This situation implies the natural northward migration of a sand bulge along the beach The article presents this as a narrative about climate change because that creates clicks, but it's misinformation. The fact that most of the Tuvalu islands have grown over the past 40 years shows that climate change is not sinking the Pacific Islands, even if some very small ones do disappear or move due to natural forces. From a quick look, your other links aren't more reliable unfortunately. These sorts of islands are prone to erosion and movement of the coastline, which would occur regardless of whether humanity was here or not. |
