Loughman said. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are in danger now, not just in the future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The parliament unanimously supported the motion, and it follows similar declarations by dozens of other countries, including Britain, Canada and South Pacific neighbour Fiji. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Vanuatu&#8217;s responsibility is to push responsible nations to match action to the size and urgency of the crisis,&#8221; the leader said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The use of the term emergency is a way of signalling the need to go beyond reform as usual.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The declaration was part of a &#8220;climate diplomacy push&#8221;
