Drowning in the ocean state requests a piece of land Bashny.Net

Island states of Kiribati sinking due to global warming in the Pacific Ocean. The neighboring Fiji not happy with the proposal kiribatiytsev buy them one island.

The government of the island nation of Kiribati in despair soon all their territory will go under water - drowned in the Pacific Ocean. Kiribati authorities found only one way out - to move the entire country. That is to buy a new land from the neighboring country - for example, Fiji.

Anote Tong, President of Kiribati: "Our island immersed in the depths of the ocean, we do not have other options, how to buy the land from the neighboring countries».

Kiribati consists of 32 coral islands, the population of the state - 113 thousand people. As the Daily Telegraph, some islands have already drowned, and most of the residents moved to the most reliable island of Tarawa. The disappearance of the state is the fault of the gradual warming of the Earth - because of sea level rise. And soon all the islands of Kiribati will sink completely.

To arrange 113 000 kiribatiytsev, states require 2000 hectares of land - it is 20 in Moscow, or two times less than in the Moscow region.

The original plan to rescue the sinking state failed first in Kiribati would build artificial islands currently in place new - based on the technology of floating oil platforms. This project proved to be too much for the authorities - do not have enough money.

Well, Fiji, apparently not amused by the request and kiribatiytsev sell them the island of Vanua Levu. Authorities declared that "not ready for mass and emergency" resettlement of citizens of the neighboring state & quot ;.

From the report of the state television: "Immigration has to be gradual and orderly when arriving people could find places to work».

PS This is how ... and what can you do figure in such a situation ...
