Global warminghas move the first of many refugees : Papua New Guinea has begun evacuating the Carteret Islands , which have been sink into the sea for years now , but they ’re finally lost to human habitation .
According to Dan Box at The Ecologist :
The voidance of the Carteret Islands [ has ] begun . This sunrise I stomach on black volcanic sand , urge on up right on against the hobo camp , and watched a small white boat powered by a single outboard locomotive engine move in against the shore . On board were five valet de chambre from the Islands , the fathers of five families , who have come to finish build houses and gardens already set out in a clear plot of ground of hobo camp at Tinputz , on the east coast of Bougainville . When these homes are ready the five will pass to the Carterets , to bring in their wife and children back . Life , they desire , will be respectable for them here . On the Carterets , Martin Luther King tide have wash away their crops and rising sea storey poison those that remain with salt . The people have been force to move .

The Solmon Islands Newsprovides more details :
The five families were chosen from a criteria set by Tulele Peisa with the emphasis on size of family , whether a kinfolk has enough to feed on the island , admittance to paying school fee and medical servicing and the whether the syndicate is capable to pull round on the island for the next two geezerhood .
This story is going to become more and more common in the next decade or two , as the people who did the least to causeclimate changepay the highest price .
