Vanuatu Prime Minister Charlot Salwai says his country is an innocent victim of climate change which he will always remind the perpetrators of global warming.
Mr Salwai made the comment as he thanked the European Union's Ambassador to Vanuatu for funding the country's biggest solar power farm that has over 2000 solar panels.
Without naming any particular country, the prime minister said it was those superpowers who refused to endorse the Paris climate agreement.
He said he had reminded the United Nations three times of the urgent need for Pacific Islands to be compensated for their land loss due to sea level rise.
Mr Salwai said Vanuatu's first enemy was climate change and it was not going to sit by and watch its shores slip under the sea.
Ah, BOHICA. This is the first extortion plot by a nation claiming money as recompense for climate change.
I’m guessing that the solar energy works will be placed on the very highest part of the island so they will be the last to subside, gurgling under the imminent flooding.
Who’s next? How about somewhere in the Caucasus complaining that a projected world class ski resort cannot be built. Something along those lines will take the climate change extortion fraud to the ultimate level. Payment for something that can’t be built.
