Raising awareness on Climate Change in the Caribbean is a part of everyones job, and we all have a responsibility to Acknowledge, Commit and Act. The Caribbean Community Climate Change Centre (5Cs) is pleased to share their first climate change music video, advocating the key message, One Climate. One Caribbean.
As a combination of island states and coastal territories, the Caribbean is a region extremely vulnerable to climate change - especially with its collective reliance on tourism and/or nature-based economies. Extreme weather events like hurricanes and droughts have become more destructive; livelihoods, including those in fisheries and agriculture, are threatened by unpredictable weather patterns; fragile ecosystems like coral reefs struggle to survive continuous coral bleaching events and disease outbreaks; while coastal communities are displaced due to sea-level rise.
The production was made possible with funding from the European Union (EU) under the Intra ACP EU GCCA+ Project and is being implemented by the 5Cs. This is the first in a suite of products to be released by the 5Cs as we work towards raising public consciousness and stimulating actions among our Caribbean citizenry to help reduce climate apathy and skepticism. The Enhancing Climate Resilience project targets 16 CARIFORUM countries and aims to reduce the human and economic impacts of climate change while finding opportunities to build resilience.
