    The island hasn’t sunk yet. So no, they’re not evacuating.

    It’s going to happen within their children’s life time, but it’s not an immediate volcano-esque emergency.

    Completely collapsing the country isn’t in anyone’s best interests in the meantime.

    Slowly is fine.

    Now why don’t you go save your moral outrage for the 193 countries that aren’t doing shit for Tuvalu.

      Literally “sinking” isn’t the issue. Becoming uninhabitable due to frequent inundations and saltwater contamination of their aquifer is the issue, and that’s starting to happen already. “Within their children’s life time” is incredibly optimistic.
