Almost all of Niue’s water (with the exception of some rainwater harvesting tanks) is supplied by the island’s underground lens. Approximately 80% of this water is used for domestic purposes, 15% for agriculture and 5% for commercial and industrial use. This water is used by an on island population of approximately 900-1400 people. There is strong political and community desire to ensure the long term sustainability of Niue’s water supply and to ensure that it is robust enough to support economic growth in industries like tourism and adapt to possible impacts from climate change.

Niue is a self-governing nation in free association with New Zealand, located partway between Tonga, Samoa and the Cook Islands. Niue's economy is heavily dependent on support from New Zealand and aid accounts for 70% of Niue's GDP. Niue has a population of approximately 1625 people, making it the world's least populated state. Niue is vulnerable to climate risks such as Tropical Cyclones (TCs) and droughts; geological risks such as earthquakes and tsunami; and human-caused risks such as disease outbreaks and contamination of the water supply. As the world's largest elevated coral atoll, its rocky and rugged coastline has steep cliffs which offer marginal protection from risks such as tsunami. However as experienced in 2004 with the category 5 Tropical Cyclone Heta, TC-induced waves have the capacity to overtop the steep cliffs and wash boulders inland up to +25 m above sea level. Niue's isolation, small population, reliance on donor aid, limited water resources and marginal agricultural potential also contribute to its overall risk profile.

2010
Interest in the world’s forests has grown to unprecedented heights, especially with growing awareness of their role in the global carbon cycle. The possibility of mitigating climate change by reducing carbon emissions caused by deforestation and forest degradation, and by increasing carbon uptake through afforestation and sustainable forest management, highlights the essential role of forests in supporting life on Earth.

While it is anticipated that most nations will ultimately suffer the adverse consequences from climate change, Niue remains one of the most vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change and as such faces the most dire and immediate consequences.
