Abstract

This book is a sequel to the volume Saving Small Island Developing States: Environmental and Natural Resource Challenges, edited by Shyam Nath, John Laing Roberts and Yeti Nisha Madhoo (2010), published by the Commonwealth Secretariat, UK. Since then the pincer movement of rising population and increasing ecological footprint has taken a further toll on the natural resources of the planet and not least in small islands. Moreover, the global agreements and effective actions on development and environmental issues seem to recede as time progresses and we now stand closer to the threshold of a global ecological crisis from the sum total of pre-existing risks.
