In a speech at COP27, Minister Simon Kofe announced his country's radical plan for survival: Tuvalu will become the world's first digital nation.Minister Kofe's speech and the accompanying campaign marks the beginning of a long process to recreate Tuvalu virtually and preserve its culture, place, identity, and statehood status under international law.It's an unthinkable, tragic outcome but without immediate, global climate action, it's the only future Tuvalu has left.
