Mauritius is a small island off the eastern coast of Madagascar. The island's climate is tropical, mollified by a gentle southeasterly trade wind. First discovered by Arab sailors, the island was once a dense tropical forest. Strangely, though uninhabited.

The island was considered uninhabitable by its first discoverers.The island was re-discovered by the Portugese in 1505 then subsequently held by the Dutch, French and British before its independence. The Dutch inhabited the island in 1598, founding an important port.

And doing irreversible damage to the indigenous flora and fauna. In 1710 they abandoned the island and 5 years later the French settled it. During this time they also founded the port city of Port Louis which also serves as the capital. For nearly 100 years, the island flourished under French rule. Finally, during the Napoleonic Wars, the British rested the island from the French, holding it until its independence.

Bermuda's beautiful beaches are the envy of the world but over the next 100 years they may disappear if a sea level rise of as much as 0.59 metres this century comes to pass, a third of the Island's beaches will be underwater.

In her climate change report, Dr. Anne Glasspool says: "With a concentration of tourist resorts on the more exposed South Shore, coupled with the fact that the favourite tourist beaches are located along this shoreline, any rise in sea level will have a negative impact.

"With a 0.59m rise (the upper limit of the International Panel for Climate Change 2007 predictions) it has been calculated that at least 31 percent of Bermuda's beach and dune habitats would be inundated."

If the ice sheets melt, it has been predicted that sea levels could rise by as much as two metres – which would result in a 54 percent loss of the Island's beaches and dunes.

"Beach structure and amenities, hotels and restaurants may also lose real estate through climate change. This will be compounded by the more intense hurricanes that are predicted." Stronger hurricanes will also lead to more beach erosion.

Dr. Glasspool says: "An integrated coastal zone management approach, building upon existing policy and legislation, may be the best adaptation strategy to inject resilience into our tourist industry.
