The Right to Sea Ice: Canadian Arctic Policy and Inuit Knowledge
In Western society, the Arctic region is often reduced to scientific data and its potential economic value in both cooling the globe and extracting natural resources. Since climate change can potentially change current Western lifestyles, the Arctic has been of increasing interest scientifically and...

In Western society, the Arctic region is often reduced to scientific data and its potential economic value in both cooling the globe and extracting natural resources.

Data from the 2004 Arctic Climate Impact Assessment showed that the Arctic is warming at almost twice the rate of the global mean temperature, emphasizing the persistent research in the Arctic spanning decades.
