If their islands disappear do they still keep a seat in the U.N.?

Don't worry kids, Big Oil says a magical sea creature symphony awaits you!
Here is a distinction a country would want to avoid – first to disappear under the seas due to the rising sea level stemming from global warming. The population of Tuvalu has already started to abandon their sinking island as increasingly high tides smash up their houses and a salty water table kills off their crops.
So does the ‘country’ still exist after the last Tuvaluan has left? Do they keep their U.N. seat? How about their lucrative “.tv” top-level domain?
Joking aside, we should round up the prominent loud-mouth global warming deniers and shove them onto the soggy uninhabitable land as punishment for their crimes against humanity.
