If youre living on an atoll thats one metre above sea level and climate change is going to cause that atoll to flood catastrophically with increasing frequency, I dont think youre worried about whether the island is sinking per se. If we dont mitigate climate change, the Pacific (amongst other places) will lose cultures and languages and the people directly involved will lose everything. And thats alongside whats going to happen for the rest of the worlds weather, food production and usable land. Climate change and what we do about it matters.
