I saw this picture in an article about Panama preparing to evacuate first island in face of rising sea levels.

The article has many great pictures from the location, as well as some depressing one, like the homes ready to take in the inhabitants:

The island is GARDI SUGDUB, Panama

Very intriguing photos. Sad to see they will relocate these people to a suburban-hell, while they use to live in a very atypical location in the middle of the ocean. Probably none of them own a car, and then they will not be able to live without one. Although I understand they probably had to build something fast and cheap.

It is isn't it? It doesn't really look like a paradise but still very unique and a huge upcoming change for the inhabitants!
