– “Climate change castaways consider move to Australia”
“THE President of what could be the first country in the world lost to climate change has urged Australia to prepare for a mass wave of climate refugees seeking a new place to live.
The Maldivian President, Mohamed Nasheed, said his government was considering Australia as a possible new home if the tiny archipelago disappears beneath rising seas.
”It is increasingly becoming difficult to sustain the islands, in the natural manner that these islands have been,” he told the Herald in an interview in Male, the Maldives capital,” quoting Ben Doherty in Male, Maldives for the Sydney Morning Herald.

“[Tonga’s Capital] Nuku’alofa could be wiped out by tsunami”
“New research is projecting that most of Tonga’s capital will be destroyed if a major earthquake generates a tsunami near the quake-prone nation.
The Secretariat of the Pacific Community has spent the last two years gathering data from Tonga’s seabed and coast to develop a prediction for what would happen if Nuku’alofa was hit by a tsunami.
It found if an 8.7 magnitude earthquake strikes in the Tonga trench a big part of Nuku’alofa would likely sink below sea level and be covered in water,” quoting TV-NZ.

– Ramtha has spoken about moving away from the water since the mid-1980s
“Stay away from the water. Get away from it. The water is beautiful but in a moment it can rush a wave over the landmass and destroy everything in sight, including you. If the Earth’s crust is vulnerable, go inland and stay there because if it is unstable, the bulk of the wave or the reaction of the shockwave moving through the oceans will create a dangerous place to be.”

– Ramtha spoke about rising sea levels many times in the past
“The melting of the polar caps, the hole in the stratum, and the warming up in the next four years will be much quicker than your scientists will tell you. The melting of the great caps of snow is already occurring, which will raise the water level to two hundred feet.”
