What's Up Maldives?

The Maldives hosted their first underwater cabinet meeting yesterday. Its the first such meeting ever to take place underwater and was orchestrated by the country's President Mohamed Nasheed to bring some awareness to the country's current and future challenges that are mounting due to global climate change.Due to rising sea levels, the island nation will most likely find itself completely submerged in the Indian Ocean in about 100 years. Clearly, if they want to keep living on their islands, everyone is going to have start getting used to this sight.
While the President of the Maldives pledged in March to have his country be completely carbon neutral by the end of the decade, I don't think that is really going to help their situation at this point.
Nevertheless, the man clearly understands the drastic effects that climate change is having on our planet, and I applaud his theatrics!
