The Maldives with more territorial sea than dry land depend on resources almost entirely from the sea. The coral reefs, which built the country, play a vital role in the economic and social well-being of the country. Today, we are exposed to the risks of intensifying weather events, and with future sea levels projected to increase in the range of 10 to 100 centimeters by the year 2100, the entire country could be submerged. Whilst many resorts across the industry have initiated its own coral regeneration programs and similar projects, our calls for help at many climates change conferences have not received adequate attention. What are your views on emphasizing for help from our visitors?
