This original documentary from The Australia Institute takes viewers to the front line of the destruction that climate change is causing. In the Pacific island nation of Tuvalu, sea water is being pushed up through the land, destroying traditional crops and making water unfit to drink. Tuvalu’s low-lying islands and atolls could become unliveable within decades, and without urgent action, it is a fate that could be shared by other Pacific nations, and Indigenous people in the Torres Strait islands.

This documentary presented by Walkley Award winning journalist and former ABC 4 Corners reporter Stephen Long, Save Tuvalu, Save the World, will be screened, with a Q&A featuring Stephen Long and climate campaigner and Tuvalu resident Gitty K Yee to follow.
