Water is Rising.
waterisrising.comA group of artists from the island nations of Kiribati, Tokelau and Tuvalu, 3 of the smallest existing countries all located in the South Pacific, are currently touring the US to raise awareness about the plight of the Pacific Islanders due to the current issues of climate change. These climate changes are particularly pertinent to these three island nations, as they are at risk of being the first countries to be submerged by the rising sea level. A worthy cause, amazing traditional performances and great culture (who doesn’t love Pacific Islanders?) Please be sure to check out the tour dates and support these dear ones, who are reminding us to respect the earth that has given us so much.
