Using time series aerial and satellite imagery from 1947 to 2014 of 33 islands, along with historical insight from local knowledge, we have identified five vegetated reef islands that have vanished over this time period and a further six islands experiencing severe shoreline recession.
A study in Environmental Research Letters (published 6 May 2016) analysed aerial and satellite imagery from 1947 to 2014 of 33 Solomon Islands reef islands together with local knowledge[1][4]
Five vegetated reef islands vanished entirely and six more suffered severe shoreline recession; the lost islands were one to five hectares with vegetation at least 300 years old[1][2][3][4]
Recession destroyed villages that had existed since at least 1935 at two sites, forcing relocations; Nuatambu Island lost over half its habitable area, with 11 houses lost since 2011[1][3][4]
Wave exposure amplified sea-level rise: Isabel island loss rates rose from 0.1% a year (1947-1962) to 1.9% (2002-2014), while the sheltered Roviana lagoon saw little change[1][4]
Solomon Islands sea level has risen 7-10 mm a year since about 1993, almost three times the global average; the authors call it the first scientific evidence of such island loss in the Pacific[2][3][4]
Relocations were largely ad hoc with little government or climate-fund help; Taro, capital of Choiseul Province, is set to become the first provincial capital to relocate because of sea-level rise[3][4]

CommonDreams could not be fetched directly (blocked), but its own headline, 'Warning for the World: Five Pacific Islands Officially Lost to Rising Seas' (10 May 2016), matches the pin's claim, with the 2016 publish date coming about two years after the pin's stored 2014 date as reporting on the underlying study.

Mongabay's own reporting, citing the Environmental Research Letters study, confirms five reef islands in the Solomon Islands vanished based on aerial and satellite imagery spanning 1947-2014 - matching the pin's claim and its 2014 stored date as the end of the imagery period, though the article itself was published 10 May 2016, after the underlying study came out.

The Conversation could not be fetched directly (blocked), but its own title and 6 May 2016 byline announce 'the first scientific evidence' of five Pacific islands lost to sea-level rise, consistent with the pin's claim about the 1947-2014 imagery study; the 2016 publication date postdates the pin's stored 2014 date, reflecting when the underlying research was first reported rather than when the islands vanished.

CONFIRMADO75% DE CONFIANZAhace 15,5 añosThe seawall program has no single completion date and remains partly unfinished as of 2026, so this pin is dated to the 11 March 2011 Tōhoku tsunami — the confirmed, exact date of the disaster that led Japan to commit to building it (construction of the network itself began in 2012, per contemporary sources).[1]
Weeks after a tsunami kills nearly 20,000 people, Japan commits to a chain of concrete seawalls along 400 km of the Tōhoku coast — a decision that is still dividing the fishing towns behind it.
CONFIRMADO93% DE CONFIANZAhace 56,3 añosThe source[1] gives "31 May off the coast of Peru in the Pacific Ocean at 15:23:29 local time", which is 20:23:29 UTC; the USGS[2] catalogue records 20:23:30 UTC for event iscgem796163.
A magnitude 7.9 earthquake off the Peruvian coast shook loose part of Mount Huascaran, and the debris avalanche buried the town of Yungay. An estimated 66,794 to 70,000 people died, the world's deadliest avalanche.
CONFIRMADO90% DE CONFIANZAhace 55,9 añosThe source[1] dates the strike in its opening line — it "struck East Pakistan (present-day Bangladesh) and India's West Bengal on 12 November 1970" — though its own track narrative says the cyclone peaked on 10 November and made landfall "on the following afternoon". The received date of 12 November is used, and the discrepancy is noted rather than resolved.
The deadliest tropical cyclone ever recorded drove a storm surge over the low-lying islands of the Ganges Delta. At least 300,000 died, and the Pakistani government's response helped set off the Bangladesh Liberation War.

Built on an artificial island, Japan's Kansai International Airport has sunk more than 13 metres since opening and could drop below sea level by 2056 if its current subsidence rate continues.

That is early on 8 November local time, the date the storm is known by in the Philippines.
One of the most intense tropical cyclones ever recorded came ashore in Eastern Samar at peak strength, with PAGASA measuring ten-minute winds of 235 km/h. At least 6,300 died in the Visayas alone.

The volcano's second eruptive phase threw ash into the jet stream and about 20 countries shut their airspace to commercial jets. Roughly 10 million travellers were stranded in the worst air-travel disruption since the Second World War.

El juez del Tribunal Superior de Santa Bárbara Thomas Anderle confirmó su fallo provisional contra Sable Offshore y concluyó que las obras de reparación de la empresa en 121 puntos de su oleoducto de 135 millas en la costa de Gaviota requerían permisos de desarrollo de la Comisión Costera de California y violaron la Ley Costera. El fallo mantiene la medida cautelar que frena nuevas reparaciones y deja en pie la multa de $18 millones impuesta por la Comisión.
