The Arctic, home to 4 million people and 10% Indigenous, faces intense climate pressures impacting homes and traditions. In Tuktoyaktuk, Northern Canada, climate change is causing erosion and threatening infrastructure and cultural sites. Rising temperatures and sea levels endanger the community, prompting relocations and adaptation strategies. Collaborations between scientists and locals aim to monitor and address these challenges. Indigenous knowledge and resilience drive efforts to sustain their way of life amidst ongoing changes.
