Fans instead of Fish - How women in Fiji have saved their village
The tiny village of Daku on the Fijian island of Viti Levu is fighting climate change. While the men of the village can no longer catch enough fish and shrimp, the women have stepped in. They're selling hand-made fans made of palm leaves. Some men are having trouble dealing with the fact that their wives are now the breadwinners.
