Fast facts about Maldives not reported by sensationalist CBS 'News'


12/7/09, "Climate change threatens Maldives," CBS "News".

CBS "News" stages a non-scientific, sensationalist event avoiding that problems in the Maldives have nothing to do with climate. CBS "News" seems to be a propaganda girl standing on the corner.
  • They could have fed and clothed hungry American children with the money they wasted on gas flying to and from a hoax.
Facts about Maldives:

The Maldives' president's wife works for the UN (item near end of page under heading, 'Post-Script'), the primary profiteer of global warming and carbon trading.

The disappearing coral reefs aren't due to global warming. Instead:
  • Maldivians use the coral reefs as their
They used it up themselves. I'm sorry, Mohamed, if a small largely uninhabited group of islands in the Indian Ocean is getting low on coral, but you can't claim that I, an American taxpayer, caused it and must pay you in perpetuity. My relatives and I can't afford gas to drive to a baseball game and I'm supposed to build you and your grandchildren a house?

The resort islands were only set up in the 1970's.

Recently, big hotel chains invested there.

No residents are allowed to have permanent residence on resort islands, so as not to dilute their
The islands are in the Indian Ocean.

"The Maldives' principal assets are its beauty, geographical isolation, and rich marine resources. When an

Italian entrepreneur set up some uninhabited islands as resorts
  • for foreign visitors in the early 1970s,
  • the tourism sector began to develop very rapidly.
Tourists come to spend time relaxing in one of the Maldives' 85 idyllic resort islands...
The recent purchase of resorts by the multinational hotel groups, Hilton and Four Seasons, is a clear indication of the projected growth of the Maldives' tourism sector. Yet the cultural effect of foreign influences has been controlled by the government policy of restricting tourist access to resort islands, unless they specifically apply for permission.
  • Also, no Maldivians have their permanent residence on resort islands.
The purpose of this is to maintain the population's apparent cultural unity as based upon the Islamic faith."...

A series of 1,190 coral islands grouped into 26 atolls (a ring-shaped coral reef enclosing a lagoon) located in the Indian Ocean, the Maldives has an area of less than 300 square kilometers (115 square miles) and a total coastline of 644 kilometers (400 miles). The islands form a narrow chain 820 kilometers (510 miles) in length and 130 kilometers (81 miles) in width within an area of 90,000 square kilometers (34,749 square miles) of ocean. Of these islands, around 200 are inhabited and 85 are tourist resorts. Comparatively, the area occupied by the Maldives is about 1.7 times the size of Washington, D.C. The capital city island, Malé, is located within Malé atoll."...
  • Coral reefs and fresh water are near depletion--not good, but there are plenty of billionaires in the UN who could pitch in and help these people, such as UN climate guru Pachauri who resides close by in India.
"More than 200 of the 1,190 islands in the Maldives are inhabited, of which only 5 islands have a population of more than 3,000. The majority have a population of 500 or less. Nonetheless, the country has a very high population density of 916 people per square kilometer. Twenty-six percent of Maldivians live on the overcrowded capital island of Malé, with an average of 10 persons per household compared with a national average of 6.5. The implications of the country's high population growth and density are severe.
  • The traditional construction material, coral, is near its point of full depletion.
More importantly, the fresh water held beneath the soil surface is in rapid decline. This means that the
  • Maldives faces the prospect of importing a large percentage of its water needs to support the growing population,
unless there are fast developments in desalination services on the islands."
