Samoa

13/07/08: I fully agree with the notion that Climate Change is changing seasons and making them increasingly unpredictable. And in my home country of Samoa Climate Change has done far more than that. It looks as if we are beginning to loose much of the traditions, the wisdom and the skills that has kept us survive life for many years and I can see no way we will be able to get those back. It looks as if we will loose them forever.

PS Liked your article. Hope this gives a true Samoan perspective – we are trying our best against all odds and no one seems to care.

SAMOA's Cool Earth Attempts - Samoan Diesel emitting some cool responses

TALOFA and Hello to you all from the Samoan Islands.

Samoa, South Pacific, has had enough of your global impacts from carbon emissions.

Time to Cool our Earth, Samoan-style.

We need $USD2Million to adapt to the already gradual and insidious impacts of climate change, and we need to build resilience along our coastlines.

We have 2 seasons in Samoa – the “hot/wet” and the “cool/dry” season. We have been going through a “hot/wet” period but theoretically, this is supposed to be the “cool/dry” season for Samoa.
