UN passes first declaration on sea level rise

Original: "The UN just passed the first declaration on sea level rise, protecting island nations' sovereignty" # UN # UnitedNation

The United Nations has adopted its first declaration on sea level rise, a milestone measure that affirms the sovereignty of island nations whose territories face being submerged as oceans rise. The declaration aims to ensure low-lying states retain their maritime rights and statehood even if land is lost. Supporters are calling it a vital step for climate-vulnerable countries.

Why now: It is the UN's first-ever declaration addressing sea level rise, a major development for small island states threatened by climate change.
