24.10.24 Visiting the Cook Islands

ν•˜ λŒ€ν‘œ 2024. 11. 2. 09:52

In December 2023, I visited the Cook Islands in the South Pacific.

​

The country was named after Captain James Cook.

​

It takes about 24 hours to get there by plane from Korea.

​

Like most Pacific nations, the Cook Islands are highly vulnerable to climate change.

​

I went there to educate people on using climate information to develop strategies to respond to climate change.

​

I visited areas that has suffered severe damage from tsunamis and listened to many stories.

​

The residents can’t access groundwater during droughts, which can be critical.

​

This made me realize how crucial accurate climate information is for island nations.

​

It also helped me understand the importance of my work.
