The people of Kiribati are afraid that one day in the not too distant future, their country will disappear
from the face of the earth - literally. Several times this year, the Pacific island nation has been flooded by at
sudden high tide. These tides, which swept across the island and destroyed houses, came when there was
neither wind nor rain. "This never happened before," say the older citizens of Kiribati.
What is causing these mysterious high tides? The answer may well be global warming. When fuels like
oil and coal are being burned, pollutants are released; these pollutants trap heat in the earth's atmosphere.
Warmer temperatures cause water to expand and also create more water by melting glaciers and polar ice
caps.
If the trend continues, scientists say, many countries will suffer. Bangladesh, for example, might lose
one-fifth of its land. The coral island nations of the Pacific, like Kiribati and the Marshall Islands, however,
would face an even worse fate - they would be swallowed by the sea. The loss of these coral islands would be
everyone's loss. Coral formations are home to more species than any other place on earth.
