A remote Pacific nation, Nauru selling passports to fund climate action has approved just six applicants since early this year.
About Nauru:
Location: Nauru is an islandnation and a microstate in Oceania, located in the southwestern Pacific Ocean.
The island is about 1,300 km northeast of the Solomon Islands; its closest neighbour is the island of Banaba, in Kiribati, some 300 km to the east.
Topography: Nauru is a raised, fossilized coral atoll and is one of the three great phosphate rock islands in the Pacific Ocean.
The island is dominated by a central phosphate plateau which is surrounded by coral cliffs.
Phosphate mining has ravaged the interior of the island, leaving about four-fifths of it uninhabitable and uncultivable.
It has no official capital city. Located on the southern coast of the island country is the district of Yaren – the de facto capital of Nauru.
Language: Their native language is Nauruan, but English is widely spoken as it is used for government and commercial purposes.
Political structure: Its constitution, adopted upon gaining independence in 1968, established it as a republic with a Westminster-style parliamentary system of government.
