Although Mauritius is renowned for its picturesque landscapes and vibrant ecosystems, this idyllic setting, however, is increasingly under threat from the global crisis of climate change. As a small island developing state, Mauritius confronts unique challenges that amplify the urgency for comprehensive and immediate action against the environmental changes impacting our land, seas, and communities.
