The northern beach belongs to Kauai Island of the Hawaiian Islands
One of the four oldest and largest islands of the Hawaiian Islands, Kauai - also known as the ' garden island ' - covers an area of 1,430 square kilometers, appearing after a volcanic explosion. With the highest rainfall in the world (11,700mm / year), the mountains here have been eroded, forming valleys and canyons with beautiful waterfalls. Kauai Island has repeatedly been chosen as the backdrop in Hollywood movies like " Lilo & Stitch ", " Jurassic Park " .
However, the unspoiled beauty and ecosystem of this island is gradually disappearing because high-rise buildings for tourism are invading with rapid speed.

Maldives Islands in the Indian Ocean
The Maldives - exactly the Republic of Maldives - is an island nation of nearly 1,192 small islands formed from a chain of 26 atolls in the Indian Ocean, but only 200 of them are inhabited. Maldives holds the record as the lowest land in the world: The maximum natural height above sea level is . 2.3 meters, an average of 1 meter, although some construction works have more background a few meters.
Over the past century, the sea level has risen by 8 centimeters. With global warming, the Maldives' existence is under threat.

Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania
Kilimanjaro means ' sparkling mountain ' in the Swahili dialect, northeast of Tanzania. Each year, about 15,000 people climb Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest of which is 5,895 meters Uhura. In 2003, scientists concluded that melting magma flow 400 meters from the summit caused fears about the risk of volcanic eruptions and collapsing mountains. Because the temperature of the earth is getting warmer, the Uhura mountain peak only covers 20% of the snow and it will disappear in 2015-2020.

Plateau in Iceland
Located at an altitude of 400 - 500 meters, almost no people live because the water from rain or snow flowing down is no longer as healthy as it was when it was high. So it's like a desert of brown, black, gray, lava and volcanic ash. Iceland Plateau is very unique. You can freely explore the interesting things of a land with virtually no footprints, with the majestic spectacle of windy rocky fields, bright red canyons. However, all these beautiful images are at risk of being submerged under the largest hydroelectric project in Europe.

Luminescent bay in Puerto Rico
The bay contains up to 720,000 single-celled Pyrodinium bahamense bioluminescent images on a unit of half a liter of water. These half-animal, half-plant creatures emit a blue light when activated. Their high concentration is enough to emit light for you to read at night. A night trip on the bay is like a myth. However, Vieques will suffer the same fate as countless ecosystems devastated by humans. Island Adventures is conducting activities aimed at drawing people's attention to the future of Vieques and calling on people to sign the petition.
