“For Cate Blanchett, climate change is an issue that is very close to home – literally. For instance, the movie star turned eco-warrior, has recently bought a plot of land in Vanuatu. This is one of the countries hardest hit by global warming. In other words, rising sea levels caused the evacuation of an entire village in the Pacific island nation in 2005. Therefore, this was the first time climate change has displaced an entire community.”
