Pandemic Warriors: Solomon Island's Climate Defenders

Meet the former beauty queen fighting to save her island home
When the seas swallowed her grandparents’ home, Gladys Habu was compelled to become a climate activist.
The former Miss Solomon Island has teamed up with Australian researcher, Simon Albert, to track the disappearance of islands to rising sea level across the Solomon Islands.
And she’s taken her fight to the international stage, making sure world leaders at COP26 were aware of impacts of climate change on her community.
