This is the third time they have rebuilt the seawall that protects their home. The seawall now stands ten metres further inland from the original high tide mark. Kataebati describes how the rising sea levels contaminated his family drinking well with salt water. They had to walk to the local church to get water, but that has recently become salty as well.Locations:Kiribati-Oceania-Pacific Islands-TarawaDate:13 Jul, 2014Credit:© Christian Åslund / GreenpeaceMaximum size:6886px X 4595pxKeywords:Climate (campaign title)-Climate change impacts-Day-KWCI (GPI)-Local population-Men-Oceans (campaign title)-One person-Outdoors-Rocks-Sea level riseShoot:Overfishing and Climate Change Impacts in KiribatiDocumentation on the impacts of sea level rise and overfishing faced by the people in Kiribati, one of the Gilbert islands in the Pacific Ocean.Related Collections:Kiribati Climate Change Impacts (Photos & Videos)
