366W0188_shishmaref.jpg Shishmaref a tiny island between alaska and siberia in the Chukchi sea is home to around 600 inuits or eskimos. As hunter gatherers their carbon footprint is tiny and as such are least responsible for global warming. Yet they are suffering greatly as a result. Their problem is twofold as temperatures rise the sea ice that used to protect thier island home forming around late september is now not forming until late december. this leaves them vulnerable to autumn and early winter storms that are eroding their island and washing it into the sea. Already 10 houses have been washed into the sea and more have had to be moved back from the edge. They are looking at having to relocate their whole comunity to the mainland but the government is refusing to pay for the relocation. Secondly the animals that they rely on for food are moving further north as temperatures warm making them harder to find and hunt threatening their ancient culture and identity.

IMG_9440_canal.jpg A gondola ride for tourists. Venice is on the front line of the battle against climate change. This unique cultural treasure is sinking into the sea. Over the last 100 years the relative sea level has risen in Venice by 23cm part due to sea level rise and part due to subsidence. The MOSE project is a $7billion engineering battle to try and save Venice from ever rising seas. The idea is to create a series of barricades that will rise from the lagoon and protect Venice from the highest tides. The Mayor of Venice already believes the project is redundant in the face of a predicted rapidly rising sea level.
