The Pacific island nation of Tuvalu is facing an existential threat from rising sea levels, prompting an unprecedented plan to relocate much of its population. Over 80% of Tuvaluans have applied for a new 'climate visa' to Australia, made possible by the Falepili Union Treaty, which offers a dedicated migration pathway as their homeland risks being submerged within decades. This marks the world's first planned migration of an entire country due to climate change, with Australia set to accept up to 280 Tuvaluans annually for permanent residency. The move raises complex questions about cultural preservation, sovereignty, and international responsibility in the face of climate-driven displacement. Tuvalu's plight highlights the urgent realities of climate change and sets a precedent for future climate migration policies worldwide.
