A World War 2 American tank lays rusting on the sand on Red Beach (so called because of the amount of American soldiers who  lost their lives and spilled their blood,in a fierce battle with the Japanese occupiers of the island), on the island of Kiribati in the South Pacific. The islands, and their way of life, are endangered by rising sea water levels which are eroding the fragile atoll, home to approximately 92,000 people.
