THE Asian Development Bank has identified Fiji as a possible destination for people from Pacific small island nations who will be forced to migrate because of climate change.
This was noted in an ADB report titled A region at risk: The Human Dimensions of Climate Change in Asia and the Pacific.
The report, by ADB and the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, assessed the magnitude of impacts on Asia and the Pacific by the end of the century under the business-as-usual approach to climate change.
