The Arctic is a unique and precious environment, home to 4 million people and diverse wildlife. It is also on the frontlines of the climate and biodiversity crisis. The Arctic environment is warming faster than anywhere else in the world, and its wildlife and people are facing challenges that no other region is facing. In light of this, Arctic communities are developing their own solutions to build resiliency.
In a collaborative webinar from Global Choices' Arctic Angels, the Arctic Youth Network and Students on Ice, hear from Polar scientists and Arctic youth as they discuss the Arctic environment, answer your science questions, and share stories and insights from their work to create change in their own communities. Highlighting the nature-climate-culture nexus in the Arctic, the event will place the interconnectedness that is intrinsic to Earth's life and environment under the spotlight.
