in fishing in winter they have muskrats and ayman. you know you need and said they share a lifelong friendship with you you. know my. legal view most. of the shares. they have different views on climate change. you know i don't believe it period nothing's changed everything's the same as i was with the keys. yet just months before the banks of the permafrost behind me in its house melted causing an entire lake to slide into the column a river but. there are billions of lakes like that where the water flows in or out that's normal it is just and it doesn't have any effect on nature. on my

life yes but not on nature. of says that long ago some people refused to believe the earth was round today some refused to believe climate change is happening or it simply doesn't bother them. russians don't fear global warming they'll say we're looking forward to it and preparing for war the europeans americans north africans and asians must sound the alarm among those already feeling the negative effects of global warming. to see months and is to recreate the step landscape that existed in the arctic 12000 years ago i return to the ice age. they want to create an ecosystem that can regulate itself. with it's live or die eat will be eaten. by my.

conduct here should you also mentally buy that a lion or a tiger in here and say now this is your park but then i turn around and leave so and. that's a joke but i do want the system to become balanced resister yes that one i might go and expand on its own beyond our current borders. so i can even imagine that one day wooly mammoths will be grazing here alongside the bison. i don't want to leave my grandchildren and great grandchildren this sad northern landscape in which only mosquitoes feel at home. but i want to leave them the species rich nature of our forefathers really not. the kind of nature that stabilizes the climate and feeds millions of people. so gay has often been accused of playing god but he argues it's just the opposite he's

simply trying to restore what humanity began destroying centuries ago. the last stage of our journey takes us to chukotka in russia's fine east. from the town of a niger we travel to van qur'an with a stop in a geeky not. according to syrian superstition you shouldn't photograph a helicopter just before takeoff but we can't resist taking a shot when no one's looking people here tell us the m.i.a. is russia's most reliable helicopter as passengers we can't help but feeling that it's rather reluctant to remain airborne still the view out the window quickly makes up for that.

after an hour and a half we land in a bikini not another storm is brewing so we change modes of transport from helicopter to triple axle jeep. will need the 6 wheel drive. north of the arctic circle the roads come to an end. we're traveling 200 kilometers as the crow flies our average speed is just 11 kilometers an hour. as the uppermost layer of the permafrost has thawed driving here is like taking a much bath sometimes the riverbed isn't as bumpy as the road running alongside us

. at some point we stopped counting the number of flat tires. is just one settlement along the route at the winter quarters of these no magic reindeer herd as our team attracts a fair bit of attention from all that and good editors are. they really receive visitors news it is a universal language. yet i didn't learn that a few years ago that. you needed in order to. dish it out there through. this soul if you. were a niche a cut a ton was home to the indigenous people double the size of germany it has just 50000 residents.

joining the night our drivers get hungry. any early morning hours we reach our destination. than curry and. only 190 people live here but every year there you know undated with visitors several. sounds that will resurface. spend the next few days with surrogate caffrey a member of the indigenous people he belongs to a family of marine hunters he wants to pass on his knowledge to his nephew unique as soon as the weather improves they plan to go hunting together.

the. surrogate tells us that the chook to live from was says he takes this to see their colony so gay has noticed changes in the marine mammals rhythm of life. he says the walrus is which can buy several tons spending long periods on land lounging around on the ice is no longer an option. on the hoarded road so for the ice disappears earlier and it keeps retreating. at the walrus as need to have somewhere to rest. they take a holiday with us in a bank or ram from august to october. but panic keeps breaking out among the walrus says they often trample one another to death to document the fatalities so

gay must free their bodies which are frozen to the ground so it is. the extensive spread of civilization in the arctic or the use of the northeast passage or the increase in military technology and even tourism are possible causes among. those are what you can hear when the rules and regulations that help the wall recess and to reduce their panic what is arm's reach. in the museum or that you brought a new kit another reason why the wool was his good spirits can be seen up on the cliff so he says he's counted some 200 polar bears around banker him. the truth have always lived alongside paula bin is also sergei knows when it's best to just leave the polar bear is suddenly looking to interest dizziness.

and our religion is and that's why i believe that you're descended from an animal was my brother for example descends from a polar bear. they told me to my great disappointment that i am the descendant of awards. not too long ago a polar bear scented something edible right in front of so guest kitchen window the more they habitat melts away the closer these predators get to humans. that's why even the smallest children here learn how to use a flake once a year so a guy pays a visit to the primary school invent qaim here he teaches children how to avoid a confrontation with the bear. the a bear. a bear right and who can tell me which direction the bear went north. children can go to school in vancouver m. until the 5th grade after that they must attend boarding school.

far from home people here say that during that time they often forget their own culture and language. bank or ems only general store offers everything from cheese to shoes. but no alcohol at least not officially. they fear that in this harsh climate people who try to drown their sorrows in drink there's a saying in chicago here the weather is bad one month of the year very bad for 2 months and for 9 months it's awful. you you lives in the town most of the time he works as a he seems technician and has a wife and child. which i don't know what it is but something keeps drawing me back

here here i forget my fear and my sorrows. the v. the ury today is a special day he'll be leaving the hopkinton for the 1st time. people here go for months in winter without seeing the son of of these men tell me nothing compensates for that better than war rest meat. they say that it's safer to kill the animals in water than on land. but. as indigenous people that should check up a method to hunt walrus is to meet their own personal names even though they're

faced with extinction. so gay says that his people are also threatened with extinction yes unlike the walrus says the church doesn't have a lobby. group. it's still not a prison hours whether in this region or any other. the few indigenous peoples on this earth have never inflicted great harm on nature but in a few but it roared and that's something you can't say of white people. i'm sure. our journey along the arctic circle ends here bernie the bering strait separates russia from alaska we forced our way through thousands of kilometers of this bleak and inhospitable landscape people here have long braved the elements and forces of nature but now they confronted with immense changes which will open their

lives they hung land and our world forever. man and animal living together and unspoiled nature nelson all a rain cofounded national the only african wildlife conservation center run by the mass i committed but since the coronavirus pandemic they have faced many more challenges than usual needs a part of them shipped in their conservation movements to find. alternatives
