northern tip of norway, climate change campaigners have set up camp. they form their own arctic circle of solidarity. they are trying to stop the opening of a mine which they say would damage this place forever. ella marie is one of the country�*s biggest young stars, a winner of the x factor stars, a winner of the x factor star competition. she is from the sami people, and indigenous community, that now appears for their way of life.— their way of life. there is so much tradition _ their way of life. there is so much tradition based - their way of life. there is so much tradition based off - their way of life. there is so i much tradition based off living off nature and the river and the forests, it�*s such a big

government be held responsible for their actions and their politics, and i really do believe that norway has a big part of the responsibility to solve the climate crisis because we have been such a big oil producer, just with my own eyes ma closes environment back home where i grew up i can see our river being closed for some fishing for the first time. i can see the forest dying. warmer conditions have attracted moths which decimated the trees in their path. trees that would absorb harmful carbon dioxide caused by burning fossilfuels. carbon dioxide caused by burning fossil fuels. scientist pointed these, as scars climate change. as we journey through this remote and often breathtaking region, we hear of more people who are fearful for the future. today we�*re going

at 83, karen anna is the oldest reindeer herd in the region. herfamily happy doing reindeer herd in the region. her family happy doing this 400 years. something her granddaughter is well aware of. it's granddaughter is well aware of. it�*s our life, we breathe and live for the reindeer the reindeer, they are the ones that make us survive. but today the are that make us survive. but today they are not _ that make us survive. but today they are not having _ that make us survive. but today they are not having any - that make us survive. but today they are not having any luck - they are not having any luck tracking them down. it�*s an unusually hot day, yet again. eventually they stop the max like that there reindeer have headed way up the mountainside to one of the few pockets of snow. a cool spot of sanctuary in a warming world. this is all that karen anna has ever known, a nomadic life. this is one of six cabins she stays at depending on where her reindeer have to venture.

you have been a reindeer herd all your life. when you are with the animals out there when the land, how do you feel? what goes through your mind? but this grandmother of nine is worried that future generations will not be able to live like this. she is placing herfaith in young people, not

politicians. as anna leaves her grandma behind, she contemplates her own future. i find the balance quite difficult, between the modern and traditional way of living, so i really like to show the world what we do, and what our traditions are, because i think they are very wonderful. unlike other members _ they are very wonderful. unlike other members of— they are very wonderful. unlike other members of the - they are very wonderful. unlike other members of the family, | other members of the family, reindeer would not define here career. she is a filmmaker, but anna hopes her work & a light on the growing to indigenous community is. the on the growing to indigenous community is.— community is. the world has more need _ community is. the world has more need for _ community is. the world has more need for power, - community is. the world has more need for power, and i community is. the world has i

we are on the move again. today will be an eight hour drive. the scenery looks like it has been here since time began but everywhere we go, we are told about how higher temperatures are shaping this environment, including here in the tromso region. they say they are already seeing the impact of climate change, in the mountains, in the forests, and in their rivers as well. there is a specific threat worrying this marine biologist and his young helper. we

over the native species like the atlantic salmon and all these native species be, because they are adapted to cold water, and when you get an increase in temperature, you have other introduced species that are used to this and they have a benefit and outcompete with the native species, and that�*s what we see now. and so you are taking action? that's what we see now. and so you are taking action?— you are taking action? yes. i think it will _ you are taking action? yes. i think it will be _ you are taking action? yes. i think it will be hard - you are taking action? yes. i think it will be hard to - you are taking action? yes. i think it will be hard to stop l think it will be hard to stop it honestly, we cannot stop this. the numbers are so high now, we can�*t stop it, but what we�*re doing is trying to reduce it. reducing the numbers, so at least we get as many salmon, atlantic salmon in so they can spawn without disturbing the others. disturbance from the pink. others. disturbance from the ink. others. disturbance from the hink, , ., , others. disturbance from the ink. ,., , others. disturbance from the ink. pink. the professor is backing the young _ pink. the professor is backing the young norwegian - pink. the professor is backing the young norwegian climate | the young norwegian climate campaigners fighting the government and trying to turn the tide. ~ ., ., , ., the tide. what we really have

an area where we know countries that make no other countries are drilling. so we have not been able to win that fight so we think that by complaining this to the european court of human rights we may have a chance to stop this catastrophic oil drilling. 23—year—old mia chamberlain has tried to juggle 23—year—old mia chamberlain has tried tojuggle her 23—year—old mia chamberlain has tried to juggle her psychology degree studies with bringing the legal case.— degree studies with bringing the legal case. personally, my sto is the legal case. personally, my story is kind — the legal case. personally, my story is kind of _ the legal case. personally, my story is kind of one _ the legal case. personally, my story is kind of one built - the legal case. personally, my story is kind of one built on i story is kind of one built on the climate anxiety. i have an overwhelming fear for the future and massive deep sadness and anger towards having to grow up in a world that is headed towards ecological collapse. and the only way to stop feeling like this is to actually do something. so

view, part of the solution. a few weeks after we make, she loses the election and steps down as prime minister. but a new government here will be committed to more drilling, at least for now. the oil and gas sector in norway accounts for more than 40% of the country�*s exports. kim�*s family is one of 200,000 who rely on the production of fossil fuels. he works for the state—owned energy company as an electrician on an oil rig. i know how it could be in hammerfest if we do not have the economy and the oil and gas companies there. it will be a ghost city with no industry and nothing. so for us it is important.— nothing. so for us it is imortant. , ., ., , ., important. many norwegians do not want to _

norway is doing it. that is my opinion. the oil and gas fields must not build out. if you build them out now it will be a clean oil and gas production. much cleaner than the saudi arabia, than the russians are doing. so i think if we do not doing. so i think if we do not do it, someone else will do it. so norway has tough decisions to make. like so many other countries, and with time running out.

hello. the weather has thrown just about everything at us over the last week or so. heavy rain, squally winds, a bit of snow over high ground in scotland. so, what does the weekend have in store? well actually, a return to milder conditions, some brisk winds, and some rain at times courtesy of this frontal system that you can see pushing in from the west. but it is moving quite slowly, it�*s running up against high pressure. so there will still be a fair amount of dry weather around through saturday and, where skies have been clear, a really chilly start across parts of eastern scotland and eastern england. but that is where we will see the rest of the sunshine, more cloud further west, the odd spot of drizzle, and then, our weather front

bringing persistent rain quite slowly eastward across northern ireland and into western scotland. it�*ll be breezy or windy wherever you are, but particularly windy in the west of scotland, with wind gusts in excess of 50 mph in exposed places. but feeling relatively mild, 12—14 celsius. as we head through saturday night, there will be a lot of cloud, we�*ll see outbreaks of rain moving very slowly eastward through scotland, hanging on across parts of northern ireland and getting into northwest england, parts of wales and the south—west, as well, but a much milder start to sunday morning. and our frontal system will continue to trudge its way eastwards through the day. and really, i think this weather front is going to break up into showers, so it won�*t be raining all the time. but we are going to see some even milder weather, if anything, spreading northwards across the uk. so, this is sunday�*s forecast — we will see a lot of cloud to start off, some outbreaks of rain tending to break up into showers with some sunny spells developing, too.

a brisk wind once again but, because that wind is coming from the south, it is going to feel really quite mild with temperatures getting to 14—15, maybe 16 celsius in 1—2 places. but what about the coming week? we are going to see further frontal systems pushing in from the west. a potential warm weather front could become quite slow moving out towards the north and west of the uk. a bit of uncertainty about that, but we can certainly see quite a lot of rain in some northern and western areas. but there is some mild weather to come, as well, with brisk south—westerly winds. and the further south you are, the better chance of staying dry at least for a few days. and here, temperatures could climb all the way to 18 celsius.
