Description: 2014 being the UN year of Small Island Developing States (SIDS) Acclimatise investigates why these nations are uniquely vulnerable to climate change. To find out Peter Adams of Acclimatise's New York office, met with Ronny Jumeau, Seychelles Ambassador for Climate Change and SIDS, Spokesperson for the Alliance of Small Island States (AOSIS) and former Seychelles Ambassador to the US. Here Ambassador Jumeau presents a compelling case for why SIDS are on the front lines of climate change, why adaptation action must be swift and strong, and why the threat to island nations extends well beyond their borders. He emphasises that SIDS are the 'canary in the climate change coalmine' and the impacts that affect them are are a threat to us all.
