We Are Tuvalu

"We Are Tuvalu" is directed by Loyola University Chicago professor John Goheen, with assistance from a team of Loyola students, including graduates of the Digital Media and Storytelling graduate program. The film is about the country of Tuvalu and the impact of climate change on this island nation.

This is so sad 😢 you guys did a wonderful job documenting everything about Tuvalu 🇹🇻 I hope the people of the world wake up and do something about the climate change, I don’t want our next generations to look for this documentary if they want to learn about Tuvalu because Tuvalu does not exist anymore. Love and respect to all of my Tuvaluan brothers and sisters from New York USA 🇺🇸

Praying for the world to come together to save Tuvalu. Surely Tuvalu will be in my bucket list as the best destinations to visit before I die. Godbless all Tuvaluans.🙏

Fantastic doc.

I trully and strongly agree with the fact that Tuvalu is suffering and really affected by climate change.. we as the people of Tuvalu voiced our opinion and we look aupon bigger countries sometimes we sound more of blamming them for what is happening to our home. the question is....... what are we doing about it??? how can we help minimise the problem and help save our beautiful nation???. i believe that sometimes to help solving the problem we have to start from within.... As a wise man says" to conquer the world.... you have to conquer yourself first... be the great example and show the world howmuch we love our country.... # TUVALU MO TE ATUA#

Talking about climate change every time, but it's to late. Tuvalu must adapt to the environment. I wish to go one day and invest in this country

mauri Tuvalu from kiribati

[@arturosolas1290]

Maybe Tuvalu must take lessons from the Chinese. China started island building in WPS by using dredgers. Not exactly they would follow this undertaking but planting mangroves for shelter and providing niches for sea creatures to prosper. Look at your island there is still a lot of places where you can plant mangroves. Don't be a victim, you must learn to stand up and fight!!

[@minuete]

As I understand it, the issue with planting mangroves is they're getting pulled out the ground before they can take root (this has happened in Kiribati as well). The tides come in so far they even pull out fully grown trees - this issue is so much more than mangroves. I would say its a bit of a disservice to Tuvaluans to suggest they're not fighting and they're being victims - they have been fighting for years and they will continue to do so.

Wow the opening seen is total propaganda Rising sea levels is a lie It's to wake up

Seriously? What are you thinking?

[@globebemine2532]

Are you suggesting climate change isn't real? Seriously?

[@patrioticjaustralia4679]

@@globebemine2532 I'm suggesting that you look hard at the weather modification programs run by governments all around the globe and then incorporate studies on the effects of those programs into climate change and then we can have a serious conversation but until that happens I can not take man made climate change claims seriously. I believe we have dropped the ball on environmentalism Climate change will be used as a tool for total control
