more-inTuvalu is a small island nation in the South Pacific and home to about 10,000 people. High sea levels have already resulted in displacement of people in several small island nations. These island nations require immediate remedies, including migration, compensation and reduction in GHG emissions. While these are broad remedies that the sinking island nations immediately require, they are hardly exhaustive. The tribunal could then invoke appropriate measures such as multilateral negotiations or directions that enable migration, compensation and other remedies that could save the people of the sinking small island nations.
