Arctic Region

The Arctic Region is the area around the North Pole, characterized by its cold climate, ice-covered seas, and unique ecosystems. It includes parts of countries like Canada, Norway, Russia, Alaska (USA), and Greenland. The region is home to various wildlife, such as polar bears and seals, and is significant for its indigenous cultures. Climate change is dramatically affecting the Arctic, causing ice to melt and impacting global weather patterns. The Arctic is also important for potential natural resources and shipping routes, making it a focal point for environmental and geopolitical discussions.
