In Blanchisseuse, the livelihoods of many residents are dependent on farming, fishing, and ecotourism.
But in recent times, residents have become concerned about their well-being given the global climate crisis.
With increasingly frequent and extreme rainfall, there have been a number of landslides over the past several years which have affected the integrity of roads and infrastructure in the village.
Increasing floods have also resulted in the activities of the community being constantly disrupted.
Now, farmers are concerned about what effects climate change will have on their abilities to grow crops.
Fishermen are also concerned about the effects climate change will have on the quality and quantity of fish they catch.
