Marshall Islands leader posts climate video plea
Description: Marshall Islands President Christopher Loeak was forced to heighten the seawall protecting his home last year but says the year-old defences are now barely enough to protect his family from a "climate emergency". "Out here in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, climate change has arrived", Loeak said in the video to be released globally ahead of UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon's climate summit in New York City.
