Legacy of .tv as .bd becomes the focus

The irony isn’t lost on us at green.tv that our domain is defined by one of the world’s first nations that will be wiped out by climate change. A lot of people aren’t aware that .tv is the country designation assigned to the Pacific Island nation Tuvalu. As Oxfam launches its cooperation with the TckTckTck campaign this last weekend, it releases two films on green.tv about Bangladesh (see below). We thought it appropriate to remind you about Tuvalu and places like it*, and the imperative for legal international recognition of climate refugee status.
