Qué cubre este vídeo
A visit to Michael's village on Tikopia, Solomon Islands, reveals a community built around cyclone resilience.3:29 Traditional low-profile houses are engineered to withstand cyclone-force winds and storm surge; a stone wall along the seaward edge protects the village from wave inundation.7:00 Caves in the nearby cliffs serve as emergency refuges during storms — the village had weathered a severe cyclone that same year, the same storm that struck Manuato and Port Vila hard.6:22 Graves are kept inside the village, including one for a person of importance.4:35 Agriculture centers on banana, taro, and sweet potato, with surplus vegetables dried and stored underground in a lactic fermentation process that preserves them for a full year.5:23 New acquaintances include Humphrey and his wife Pamela, and a young boy who gives his name as Fisherman.4:58 The crew of Hylas 63 introduces crew member Malu to the hosts.5:04 The group then moves toward a second village.7:55 The visit shows how Tikopia's traditional building methods and food-storage practices are directly adapted to cyclone risk.
