Tuvalu’s PM takes aim at the world’s big polluters

Leaders from nations including Australia, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and Mauritius have made a flying visit to Tuvalu, for a first-hand look at the reality of climate change in one of the world's lowest-lying countries.

The visit comes on the sidelines of the Pacific pre-COP summit ahead of COP31 in Türkiye next month.
