Arctic Coastal Communities

Arctic coastal communities are small towns and villages situated along the northern coastlines of countries like Canada, Russia, and Greenland. These communities often rely on local marine resources such as fishing, hunting, and subsistence activities. Due to their remote locations and harsh, cold climates, they face unique challenges like climate change, melting ice, and limited infrastructure. Despite these difficulties, they often have rich cultural traditions and deep connections to the land and sea. Their resilience and adaptation are vital as the Arctic environment transforms rapidly in the face of global warming.
