In short: approximately 4% of the population of the island nation of Tuvalu will migrate to Australia each year.

I wonder what life will be like there when half the population have left. Some people will be left living in a mostly abandoned island nation for years.

Next up is Palestine, if certain individuals are allowed to act out despite global condemnation.

    They wont let them leave. If you know what I mean. It's also an entirely another beast.

      Well it's good to see the Rest of World stepping up with air drops of food, and a pipeline for water.

      It's just the US and that best friend and ally that are being unspeakably, persistently cruel. Hey the vast majority American people do NOT support this. This is a gift of casino mogul Adelson's widow who helped put someone in the WH for one reason only.

Once everyone's emigrated, what happens to the .tv TLD?
