Fiji’s prime minister has said the Pacific island nation is in “a fight for survival” as climate change brings “almost constant” deadly cyclones.
Frank Bainimarama said Fiji had entered a “frightening new era” of extreme weather that needed to be confronted.
His comments came after Cyclone Josie caused deaths and flooding on Fiji’s main island, Viti Levu, at the weekend.
In 2016, a cyclone hit Fiji leaving 44 people dead and wiping out one-third of the nation’s economic production.
