The article should consider mentioning whether there have ever been proposals to re-engineer the island by building dams or by raising the ground level by several dozens of feet. For instance, the local government could attempt to apply the techniques used to construct artificial islands, by which the seafloor is modified for geographical purposes.

This article has a problem, in that it isn't about climate change in Tuvalu. It is about sea level rise and its affects on Tuvalu. Sea level isn't really climate. Changes in sea level can be an effect of climate change, but that's not the same thing William M. Connolley ( talk) 21:57, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

I am looking at this article and I see a recent update using this link:
https://kmt.news/2018/03/19/tuvalu-pm-refutes-aut-research/
What is the standard of proof needed on Wikipedia? I ask because this article seems to suggest that an elected official can single handedly "refute" the published scientific findings from the University of Auckland. — Preceding unsigned comment added by I.AM.4D1416411561156 ( talk • contribs) 20:08, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
You make a reasonable point, I was just going by the title of the article being referenced, "TUVALU PM REFUTES AUT RESEARCH", which claims that the PM is "refuting" the research from the U of A. If I follow the link provided in your edit comment I see this listed:
"As in the body of the article itself, the emphasis given to material in the lead should roughly reflect its importance to the topic, according to reliable, published sources. Apart from basic facts, significant information should not appear in the lead if it is not covered in the remainder of the article."
I guess your point calls into question just how reliable this source is. They are claiming that the PM is refuting the scientific research from U of A, when as you point out he does no such thing.
I also see from the "About KMT" description of this source that it is actually a small local newspaper. Is this really considered reliable given that the PM likely has significant influence on the content of it? This all seems rather dubious to me.
I propose that we simply clarify the sources of the claims, one being the U of A and the other being the PM of Tuvalu so that readers will know how important each is. Is this satisfactory? — Preceding unsigned comment added by I.AM.4D1416411561156 ( talk • contribs) 21:50, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
An even better reference for the overall atoll situation is a liteature review that happened this year. NewsAndEventsGuy ( talk) 11:01, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
I suggest to change the headings and structure of this article to be in line with the template that has been proposed here for all articles of the nature "Climate change in Country X": /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Climate_change/Style_guide (see also discussion on that page's talk page). Anyone has any objections? If not, who's got time to give it a go? I am slowly working away at this for all the countries but would love some collaborators.
