(The very media savvy President Mohamed Nasheed of Maldives held a government cabinet meeting underwater to call attention to the real possibility that his low-lying island will disappear due to sea level rise. Among the deluge of press coverage of the event, we read a brief mention about a climate change trust fund set up in case the Maldives does get inundated in the future. It's worth speculating how this fund will be used. See also New Tuvalu, New Kiribati and New Nauru.)
