-I'm Siwan Davies -and my work involves researching... | 0:00:05 | 0:00:08 | |
-..how the planet's climate -has changed in the distant past. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:12 | |
-I've gathered significant evidence -on Greenland's ice sheet. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:16 | |
-These days we're facing -another change in our climate... | 0:00:16 | 0:00:20 | |
-..that is completely different -from those I've studied. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:25 | |
-Modern climate change is caused -by the actions of humans... | 0:00:25 | 0:00:29 | |
-..rather than natural processes. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:31 | |
-As a result, the future -is uncertain and challenging. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
-It's my quest in this series to see -how climate change affects people. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:47 | |
-I've never been given -this opportunity before. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:51 | |
-Usually, -I collate scientific data... | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
-..so it's a fresh -and unique experience... | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
-..to meet people in order -to prove these effects for myself. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:03 | |
-Greenland, Kalaallit Nunaat, -is a vast country... | 0:01:06 | 0:01:09 | |
-..covering -2.2 million square kilometres. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
-It's the world's largest island... | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
-..with more than 80% of it -covered in a sheet of ice... | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
-..which is melting -on a massive scale. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:23 | |
-It's the equivalent -of losing five Bala Lakes a day. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:27 | |
-This year it's melting two months -earlier than it's ever done before. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:31 | |
-Greenland's 56,000 inhabitants live -on the island's southern fringes. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:43 | |
-I want to see how climate change -affects the country and its people. | 0:01:47 | 0:01:52 | |
-The climate -has shaped Greenland's history. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:56 | |
-For a country that's so white, -where did its name come from? | 0:01:56 | 0:02:00 | |
-There was a warm period -during the 10th century. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
-This is when Erik the Red, -a Viking from Iceland... | 0:02:08 | 0:02:11 | |
-..came to Greenland -and saw its agricultural land. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
-Behind me, across the water... | 0:02:15 | 0:02:18 | |
-..he established his farm, -Brattahlid. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
-He set about -attracting more Vikings here... | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
-..and some farms -still exist to this day. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
-Erik the Red was the first -to discover green land. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:36 | |
-It was warmer here -because the Sun's activity was high. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:39 | |
-I'm meeting some of the farmers -who live on the same land today... | 0:02:40 | 0:02:44 | |
-..and to hear more -about what happened to the Vikings. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
-It's strange to think -we can cross this fjord in winter. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:58 | |
-The village -is now called Qassiarsuk. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
-It's a close-knit community -sustained by sheep farming. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:16 | |
-I'm meeting -local teacher Elen Frederiksen. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
-The village has 50 inhabitants... | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
-..along with a school, a chapel, a -small shop and a hostel for walkers. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:30 | |
-The memorial statue of -Leif Eriksson, Erik the Red's son... | 0:03:30 | 0:03:35 | |
-..supports the belief -he was the first Viking... | 0:03:35 | 0:03:38 | |
-..to sail to North America. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:41 | |
-The native language -is Kalaallisut... | 0:03:41 | 0:03:44 | |
-..though the colonial language -is Danish. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:48 | |
-Many, like Elen, also speak English. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:50 | |
-Geographically, Greenland is part of -the continent of North America. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:58 | |
-I met one of the island's young -people who speaks three languages. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:08 | |
-David Heilmann Ottossen. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:11 | |
-He works in an exhibition -at Erik the Red's ancient farm. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:15 | |
-Erik's wife insisted he build her -a chapel in which to worship. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:19 | |
-This was the first Christian chapel -on the North American continent. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:24 | |
-David explained that Erik persuaded -other Vikings to follow him here... | 0:04:34 | 0:04:39 | |
-..since the land -was so green and fertile. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
-Birch trees were felled... | 0:04:43 | 0:04:45 | |
-..to build a farm where they kept -sheep, cattle and horses. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
-But this warm period in Greenland -was short lived. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:55 | |
-Later it started to cool again -and became the Little Ice Age. | 0:04:55 | 0:05:00 | |
-I asked David to explain -what happened in the 15th century. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:08 | |
-All the Vikings disappeared within -500 years due to a mini ice age. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:16 | |
-They couldn't tolerate the cold. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:19 | |
-The Northwest Passage froze over. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:22 | |
-It was an ocean -where ships came and went. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
-They couldn't buy goods such as salt -that was vital to store fish. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:29 | |
-The farm animals died, -so they no longer had milk. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:33 | |
-The indigenous Inuit who lived here -knew how to hunt and fish. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:39 | |
-The Vikings failed to adapt. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:41 | |
-Now there's another change -facing the inhabitants. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
-This time, -it's not a natural change. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:48 | |
-Life is changing -in Kalaallit Nunaat. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:53 | |
-The weather's changing, -glaciers are shrinking... | 0:05:53 | 0:05:57 | |
-..and the ice caps are melting -faster than ever before. | 0:05:57 | 0:06:00 | |
-Animals are moving from their -habitats and changing behaviour. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:04 | |
-The polar bear can't catch seals -because the ice is disappearing. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:08 | |
-It comes into the villages -because it smells food. | 0:06:09 | 0:06:12 | |
-As a result, -seal numbers are rising. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
-Since they feed on fish -and us humans also fish... | 0:06:15 | 0:06:19 | |
-..their numbers are in decline. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:21 | |
-Killing seals is unacceptable -because they're so harmless... | 0:06:22 | 0:06:26 | |
-..so we can't control the numbers -by exporting them either. | 0:06:26 | 0:06:30 | |
-This causes an economic crisis -for Greenland's natives. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:34 | |
-David claims -that life here is exciting now. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:41 | |
-Ice melts, revealing land... | 0:06:41 | 0:06:43 | |
-..with the possibility of mining -for precious minerals underground. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:48 | |
-The Arctic holds 25% of -the world's oil and gas reserves... | 0:06:48 | 0:06:52 | |
-..along with precious minerals... | 0:06:53 | 0:06:55 | |
-..such as nickel, iron, -copper, uranium and gold. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:59 | |
-Without the ice, -these can be mined... | 0:06:59 | 0:07:02 | |
-..which is great news -for Greenland's economy. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:05 | |
-The Northwest Passage that was -once closed to ships due to ice... | 0:07:06 | 0:07:10 | |
-..would open, -making commerce easier. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:13 | |
-On the one hand, -we fear the changes... | 0:07:16 | 0:07:18 | |
-..but I notice that some people -are hopeful as the ice melts. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:23 | |
-Land is exposed and is -available for mining and farming. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:27 | |
-People enjoy warmer weather. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:30 | |
-It'll be a boost for the economy. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:32 | |
-Some regard it -as a gateway to independence. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:36 | |
-Those who are facing the challenge -head on are Greenland's farmers. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:42 | |
-With Elen interpreting, -I met Fred Frederiksen... | 0:07:50 | 0:07:53 | |
-..who told me about the -village of Qassiarsuk's history. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:57 | |
-Otto Frederiksen -my great-great-grandfather... | 0:08:01 | 0:08:05 | |
-..came to establish a sheep farm -on Erik the Red's farm. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:08 | |
-He started building it -in July 1924... | 0:08:09 | 0:08:11 | |
-..before his family -and sheep arrived in September. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:15 | |
-Today, I own one of -the 15 sheep farms on the island. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:19 | |
-Has Fred noticed any changes -as the climate changes? | 0:08:19 | 0:08:23 | |
-I first noticed a change in 2006. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:28 | |
-Drought is the main worry -and it's worsening. | 0:08:28 | 0:08:31 | |
-There was no rain for two months -during the summer of 2015. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:35 | |
-I fear there isn't enough grass -to feed sheep in winter. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:39 | |
-He must import feed from Denmark, -which costs a fortune. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:45 | |
-Too many sheep -are grazing on the best land. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:48 | |
-The drought endangers sheep farming, -one of the area's few industries. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:54 | |
-It's the same story on Elen's farm. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:15 | |
-Not having enough grass -is a major concern. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:18 | |
-Unlike before, a warmer climate -means they can now grow vegetables. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:23 | |
-Warmer weather -caused quite a stir... | 0:09:24 | 0:09:26 | |
-..with many hoping life -would be easier in this Frigid Zone. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:31 | |
-However, her husband, Carl, quickly -realized that life was harder. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:36 | |
-The problem is that we have to plant -vegetables in the south in May... | 0:09:40 | 0:09:44 | |
-..at the same time -as lambing season. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:47 | |
-It's impossible to do both... | 0:09:47 | 0:09:49 | |
-..although I do have -a good crop of rhubarb. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:53 | |
-One farmer is about to give up -sheep farming altogether... | 0:10:06 | 0:10:09 | |
-..to focus on growing vegetables. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:12 | |
-Per Hansen lives on a remote farm -in the furthest corner of the fjord. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:17 | |
-I come from -a rural community myself... | 0:10:23 | 0:10:26 | |
-..but it's very hard -to imagine what life is like here. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:30 | |
-Per farms alone, it's an hour -to the nearest town by tractor... | 0:10:30 | 0:10:34 | |
-..and the only other way -of reaching here is by boat. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:38 | |
-Life is hard here. It's become -impossible to farm sheep. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:47 | |
-I now hope -to make a living as a carpenter... | 0:10:47 | 0:10:50 | |
-..and by -selling vegetables to locals... | 0:10:50 | 0:10:53 | |
-..since the milder climate helps to -grow white, red and green cabbage... | 0:10:54 | 0:10:59 | |
-..broccoli, potatoes, turnips, -beetroot and spinach. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:03 | |
-It's even possible nowadays -to grow strawberries. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:07 | |
-I'll miss my sheep. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:09 | |
-Five neighbouring farms -have ceased sheep farming this year. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:13 | |
-I admire the natives' assiduity -for living here at all. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:18 | |
-However, Per's opinion is clear. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
-It's a tough life but a free life. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
-I probably couldn't live -anywhere else in the world. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:29 | |
-Despite how wonderful it is -to see an eagle nearby... | 0:11:29 | 0:11:33 | |
-..it's a common sight here. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:35 | |
-Per tells me this is the main -problem during lambing season. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:39 | |
-Per's ability to adapt... | 0:11:39 | 0:11:41 | |
-..and live in such a remote setting, -despite the problems, amazes me. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:46 | |
-Nature and landscape is important -to Greenland's natives. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:55 | |
-But what about -language and culture... | 0:11:56 | 0:11:59 | |
-..especially if foreign workers -come here to mine for minerals? | 0:11:59 | 0:12:04 | |
-The culture of Greenland... | 0:12:05 | 0:12:07 | |
-..is a very strong culture. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:10 | |
-We're very protective -towards this culture. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:13 | |
-I believe this kind of impact... | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
-..this kind of inevitable change -will make people... | 0:12:20 | 0:12:24 | |
-..aware of things -are always in movement... | 0:12:24 | 0:12:28 | |
-..and this has to be -something people adapt to. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:32 | |
-Qujanaq. Thank you. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:35 | |
-It's the end of the day -in Qassiarsuk... | 0:12:37 | 0:12:40 | |
-..and it's been -thoroughly inspirational. | 0:12:40 | 0:12:43 | |
-The place is steeped in history. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:45 | |
-It's where Erik the Red came -in the 10th century. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:49 | |
-Now I've had an insight into the -fragile lives of the inhabitants. | 0:12:49 | 0:12:53 | |
-Only 50 people live here... | 0:12:54 | 0:12:56 | |
-..but their lives -are totally reliant on the weather. | 0:12:56 | 0:12:59 | |
-They're also very hopeful here. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:02 | |
-I've spoken -to one person in particular... | 0:13:03 | 0:13:06 | |
-..who's hopeful about the future -as a result of climate change. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:11 | |
-. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:19 | |

-I've seen -how life is changing in Greenland... | 0:13:34 | 0:13:37 | |
-..due to climate challenges. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:39 | |
-Farming, an important industry here, -is becoming difficult. | 0:13:39 | 0:13:44 | |
-Since minerals and oil -are now easier to mine... | 0:13:44 | 0:13:47 | |
-..the culture's future -is at stake... | 0:13:48 | 0:13:50 | |
-..as foreigners capitalize -on new opportunities. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:53 | |
-But what about civic life? | 0:13:54 | 0:13:56 | |
-I've reached the busy harbour -of Qaqortoq, further south. | 0:13:56 | 0:14:00 | |
-Fishing is the main industry here. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:04 | |
-It's also -the area's municipal centre. | 0:14:05 | 0:14:08 | |
-The town is bigger than I expected -and incredibly colourful. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:20 | |
-Red denotes local government... | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
-..green for communication, -yellow for healthcare... | 0:14:23 | 0:14:27 | |
-..and blue for the all-important -maritime tradition. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:31 | |
-I'm staying in a B&B with Heidi. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:37 | |
-All visitors are given a lesson -in the Kalaallisut language. | 0:14:37 | 0:14:42 | |
-It'd be interesting -to see this happen in Wales. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:45 | |
-PRONOUNCES WORD | 0:14:45 | 0:14:47 | |
-That's hard! | 0:14:48 | 0:14:50 | |
-Heidi Moller -has lived in Greenland all her life. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:55 | |
-Climate change will be -an advantage for me personally... | 0:14:56 | 0:15:00 | |
-..and an economy boost for the town. | 0:15:00 | 0:15:03 | |
-More people will visit. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:04 | |
-Heating bills will be cheaper, -we'll have a variety of vegetables. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:09 | |
-We're a population of 55,000... | 0:15:09 | 0:15:12 | |
-..and life is hard. | 0:15:12 | 0:15:14 | |
-Despite the advantages, I've -mixed feelings about the future. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:19 | |
-I was so happy -because we will feel the sun... | 0:15:19 | 0:15:24 | |
-..and heating us up. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:26 | |
-So, it was a new word, -climate change. | 0:15:26 | 0:15:31 | |
-One thing I know... | 0:15:32 | 0:15:34 | |
-..is that the ice cap -is melting fast. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:37 | |
-Very fast. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:39 | |
-It means also that... | 0:15:39 | 0:15:41 | |
-..the sea is getting higher. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:44 | |
-I will be -very concerned about the world. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:48 | |
-The rest of the world. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
-What can we do? | 0:15:52 | 0:15:54 | |
-I can participate -in interviews like this... | 0:15:54 | 0:15:58 | |
-..and maybe it will help somewhere -to have this information... | 0:15:58 | 0:16:03 | |
-..like the world is crying... | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
-..or symptoms start -here in Kalaallit Nunaat. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:11 | |
-Honest people and a magical place... | 0:16:14 | 0:16:17 | |
-..but the effects of climate change -are plain to see. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:21 | |
-Perhaps people in Greenland are -more aware of nature and weather... | 0:16:21 | 0:16:26 | |
-..because life is fragile -and survival is a feat. | 0:16:26 | 0:16:30 | |
-Heidi took me shopping. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:37 | |
-A whale had been caught and all -the townsfolk came to buy the meat. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:41 | |
-This only happens once -every four or five months... | 0:16:41 | 0:16:45 | |
-..so there's much celebration -and everyone helps out. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:49 | |
-They'll work well into the night -chopping the meat. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:53 | |
-The best meat -sold in the first two hours... | 0:16:53 | 0:16:55 | |
-..so Heidi missed out -on the best meat this time. | 0:16:56 | 0:16:59 | |
-Whale meat -is essential to the people's diet... | 0:16:59 | 0:17:03 | |
-..as it's a source of fat. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:05 | |
-It's what keeps them warm -in winter... | 0:17:05 | 0:17:08 | |
-..when the entire town -is covered in snow. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:11 | |
-Aside from a family feast, the rest -is sliced and stored for winter. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:17 | |
-During the colder months, -people eat whale meat... | 0:17:17 | 0:17:21 | |
-..with dry fish for energy. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:23 | |
-Other hunters -sell their dry fish to villagers. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:31 | |
-The ability to fish and hunt -sustained the Kalaallit... | 0:17:33 | 0:17:37 | |
-..while the Vikings failed. | 0:17:37 | 0:17:39 | |
-The key to survival -is the ability to adapt. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:45 | |
-What will you do with this meat? | 0:17:48 | 0:17:50 | |
-Feast! | 0:17:50 | 0:17:52 | |
-Hi, Jorgen. Nice to meet you. | 0:18:12 | 0:18:15 | |
-Thank you so much for meeting me. | 0:18:15 | 0:18:17 | |
-Mayor Jorgen Johansen is committed -to improving the lives of locals. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:22 | |
-I asked him to describe -the effects of climate change. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:26 | |
-The advantages and disadvantages -on the area's people and economy. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:31 | |
-People are feeling the heat and -farmers are experiencing a drought. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:40 | |
-It hasn't rained for two months, -which is a very new problem. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:44 | |
-As the inner ice melts -and the water warms... | 0:18:44 | 0:18:48 | |
-..the fjord -is unlikely to freeze in winter. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:51 | |
-20 years ago, the fjords -froze solidly every time. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:55 | |
-But I'm keen to capitalize -on opportunities that arise. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:59 | |
-There's a plan in place -for mining... | 0:18:59 | 0:19:01 | |
-..a new strategy -for tourism and fishing. | 0:19:01 | 0:19:04 | |
-But is there a danger that -these industrial developments... | 0:19:04 | 0:19:09 | |
-..will damage -the environment further? | 0:19:10 | 0:19:12 | |
-We don't want any mining that's bad -for our health and our environment. | 0:19:13 | 0:19:17 | |
-We want a green form of mining -by utilizing hydro power. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:22 | |
-That's what'll make our country -competitive in the global market. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:27 | |
-But what about the culture? | 0:19:29 | 0:19:30 | |
-They'll have to deal -with thousands of incomers... | 0:19:31 | 0:19:34 | |
-..integrating into communities. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:37 | |
-I asked -if it would affect the language. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
-We're adamant we won't lose that -in any development. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:45 | |
-Language and culture will become -part of the negotiation process... | 0:19:45 | 0:19:50 | |
-..before people come here to mine. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:52 | |
-A plan will ensure -that the people and the culture... | 0:19:52 | 0:19:55 | |
-..will benefit -from the developments. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:58 | |
-As you know, in Wales, the language -is the bottom of your hearts. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:05 | |
-It is -the very essence of your culture. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:08 | |
-It is in Greenland -and we don't want to lose that... | 0:20:08 | 0:20:11 | |
-..no matter -what kind of development we accept. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:16 | |
-I think brightly of the future -because... | 0:20:16 | 0:20:20 | |
-..as Eleanor Roosevelt once said... | 0:20:20 | 0:20:23 | |
-.."The future belongs to those... | 0:20:23 | 0:20:26 | |
-"..who believe -in the beauty of their dreams." | 0:20:26 | 0:20:29 | |
-I think the future for South -Greenland is full of opportunities. | 0:20:29 | 0:20:34 | |
-And it is a wise utilization.... | 0:20:34 | 0:20:39 | |
-..of those opportunities... | 0:20:40 | 0:20:42 | |
-..that will enable us to create a -better life for people living here. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:46 | |
-Qujanaq. Thank you. | 0:20:47 | 0:20:49 | |
-I've met many different people -in Greenland... | 0:21:02 | 0:21:05 | |
-..and heard different viewpoints. | 0:21:05 | 0:21:08 | |
-Some people find it difficult... | 0:21:08 | 0:21:11 | |
-..while others talk of exciting -opportunities in the future. | 0:21:11 | 0:21:15 | |
-But one thing which struck me -more than anything... | 0:21:16 | 0:21:19 | |
-..was hearing -and feeling Heidi's love... | 0:21:19 | 0:21:23 | |
-..for Kalaallit Nunaat. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:25 | |
-On the northern tip of the world, -where summers are always bright... | 0:21:31 | 0:21:35 | |
-..the bleak winters -are a cradle for Kalaallit Nunaat. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:40 | |
-When winter brings with it -a sheet of ice... | 0:21:41 | 0:21:44 | |
-..the fisherman still fishes... | 0:21:44 | 0:21:46 | |
-..fighting the snow -to survive on Kalaallit Nunaat. | 0:21:46 | 0:21:50 | |
-From the planet's polar region, -where nature is safe and content... | 0:21:52 | 0:21:57 | |
-..its wildness is a wave after wave -for the Kalaallit Nunaat Inuit. | 0:21:57 | 0:22:02 | |
-Another day ends and I feel as if -I'm leaving Kalaallit Nunaat... | 0:22:05 | 0:22:10 | |
-..having learnt so much about -the people, language and culture. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:15 | |
-It's such a unique place, -it's a privilege to be here. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:18 | |
-But the effects of climate change -will not only affect Greenland... | 0:22:18 | 0:22:24 | |
-..the rest of the world -is also in danger. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:29 | |
-I travel to the Maldives, -which are already suffering... | 0:22:29 | 0:22:33 | |
-..due to the level of the sea rising -as Kalaallit Nunaat's ice melts. | 0:22:33 | 0:22:38 | |
-Giant glaciers are melting. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:46 | |
-The sun's rays -are now intensifying... | 0:22:46 | 0:22:49 | |
-..after every dawn during -Kalaallit Nunaat's long summers. | 0:22:49 | 0:22:54 | |
-But will the snowflakes fall -as white diamonds... | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
-..like a whale's skin, -all shiny and smooth... | 0:22:58 | 0:23:01 | |
-..to freeze the rivers and lakes... | 0:23:01 | 0:23:03 | |
-..during -the Kalaallit Nunaat winter? | 0:23:04 | 0:23:07 | |
