Tokelau was the first nation to aim for 100% of its electricity to be generated from solar as a result of the New Zealand funded Tokelau Renewable Energy Project in 2012. Their coral island atolls contribute a minimal amount of global greenhouse gas emissions, yet they are the first to be impacted by climate change. Tokelau's resilience in their daily response to the climate crisis exemplifies how they are leading by example. VAKA premiered at the UNFCCC COP25 in Madrid at the Moana Blue Pacific Pavilion in cooperation with MFAT New Zealand, Tokelau, MiCORE, and Massey University. Written by Kehan Miller See less
