militarization in the arctic. reactivating the former bases from the cold war times it's all ok stuff and runs through a few of the scientists in our ranks and i want to ask you the same question who does the also belong to because i anticipate we might get a different answer well i think that the the whole arctic ocean should be declared as a common heritage of humanity and the nations should pull together to protect the arctic it's not likely to happen it's it's happened and acted ca so it's not out of the question and we are in an unprecedented climate crisis the arctic is warming 3 times faster than the whole glow the ice is melting away and this is affecting all nations level rise from melting greenland ice through the effects on the jet stream and our weather systems in the mid latitudes for example. ok let's bring in the arena for those who are from born. here you know why is the region suddenly so important everybody's talking about it much more than they were what's brought this it's again this is sort of

who says the arctic has vast. you cannot take resources around russia wants a big slice of the ok. thank you all for 3 for being with me today interesting insights to begin the show and to get us going out like to begin by asking michelle powell the apparently straightforward question who does the arctic belong to. those it's quite clear a big area around the north pole belongs to the human mankind. the rest was clearly defined by international law a law to see. russia claimed in 2000 also the arctic is russia. ok a straightforward answer based on principles of law you say why all things so tense around the region at this point in time. well in former times it was cold hard norse and low turn but right now and little use off the 2000. president putin claims russia's return as a world power. they started also remember target is militarized season in the arctic. reactivating the former bases from the cold war it's all ok stuff and runs through a few of the scientists you know ranks and i'd like to ask you the same q

room illiterate season in the arctic. reactivating the former basis from the cold war times it's all ok stuff and runs through a few of the scientists in our ranks not going to ask you the same question who does the outset belong to because i anticipate we might get a different answer well i think that the the whole arctic ocean should be declared as a common heritage of humanity and the nations should pull together to protect the arctic it's not likely to happen it's it's happened and arctica so it's not out of the question and we are in an unprecedented climate crisis the arctic is warming 3 times faster than the whole globe the ice is melting away and this is affecting all nations from sea level rise from melting greenland ice through the effects on the jet stream and our weather systems in the mid latitudes for example . ok let's bring in the arena fellows who are from boston. you know why is the region suddenly so important everybody is talking about it much more than they were what's brought this it's again sort of

on in the arctic. reactivating the former basis from the cold war times it's all ok stuff and runs through a few of the scientists in our ranks and i want you to ask you the same question who does the also belong to because i anticipate we might get a different answer well i think that the whole arctic ocean should be declared as a common heritage of humanity and the nations should pull together to protect the arctic is not likely to happen. it's happened and i acted cause so it's not out of the question and we are in an unprecedented climate crisis the arctic is warming 3 times faster than the whole globe the ice is melting away and this is affecting all nations level rise from melting greenland ice through the effects on the jet stream and our weather systems in the mid latitudes for example. ok let's bring in. our from boston. you know why is the region suddenly so important everybody's talking about it much more than they were what brought this it's again this is sort of create the interest. well i

the arctic is russia. ok a straightforward answer based on principles of law you say why all things so tense around the region at this point in time though in former times it was cold high north and low turn right now and use off to 2000. president putin claimed russia's return as a world power. they started also. militarized station in the arctic. reactivating the former basis from the cold war times ok stuff and runs through a few of the scientists you know ranks not likely to ask you the same question who does the also belong to because i anticipate we might get a different answer well i think that the whole arctic ocean should be declared as a common heritage of humanity and the nations should pull together to protect the arctic is not likely to happen. it's happened and acted so it's not out of the question and we are in an unprecedented climate crisis the arctic is warming 3 times faster than the whole globe the ice is melting away and this is affecting all nations from sea level rise from melting gr

the whole debate on the arctic goes about. because that was an interest clearly these people have in greenland on that was also attractive to use president donald trump you remember who wanted to buy greenland because of a rare earth because it was due to a strategic importance of greenland clearly there are very many aspects. one really interesting thing about this story about the future of there are 2 things that it brings together military issues geopolitical issues. economic issues and environmental issues i know you're a person of ideas can you somehow we've got all together to sort of explain how there was the independence of those factors well this is a tough question but i would say what's going on now with the race for resources in the arctic and economic benefits is very much a kind of 20th century thing and we're now in the 21st century we're in a climate crisis which threatens civilization as we know it and we all live together on this one fragile planet and we shouldn't be working against each other especially not

issues the whole debate on the arctic goes about. because that was of interest clearly is the chinese people have been in greenland on that was also attractive to us president the donald trump you remember who wanted to buy greenland because of her errors and because it was due to strategic importance of greenland clearly there are very many aspects. one really interesting thing about this story about the future of they are thinking is that it brings together military issues geopolitical issues. economic issues and environmental issues i know you're a person of ideas can you somehow we've got all together to sort of explain how there was the independence of those factors well this is a tough question but i would say what's going on now with the race for resources in the arctic and economic benefits is very much.

we formed what we call the voice of the arctic inupiaq.basically takes all the leadership from all the organizations across the slope to go in one voice. thompson: asrc tries to present that they are the voice of the people, but they are not. it is a for-profit cporation that is in joint venture with the oil industry at this moment. burns: on the western side, they all want development. they want it here in our land, because they want to preserve their own hunting grounds. we always like to represent ourself, but they represent us, but they don't live here. all the oil companies, they say they need to drill in just this little area. but then, while they're doing that, they'll say, "oh, we need a permit for this one over here. we need a permit for that one over here." they're gonna spiderweb all over and look for that oil, and if they find it, they're gonna extract it. patkota: we as inupiaq people considered ourselves the first conservationists. but with the right balance, we believe it can be done in a way that it doesn't harm the migrati

one point on the arctic which is china is making huge point in the arctic, just in the past couple of years a number of the arctic council members, finland and norway, sweden has started to push back and not been very welcoming of chinese investment as they become quite concerned about the tie between national security and china's economic investments. there's a lot at play here but china calls itself, it's on its way to become a great polar power even though it's 90 miles away. it's right to be concerned and think about ways possibly we could partner with russia on this. more broadly when we're thinking about u.s. policy towards china for me the biggest changes that probably need to take place, some of you are with the biden administration getting ourselves back and international organizations. china is basically taking advantage of our absence as a bullet from various agreements and international organizations over the past four years. china has attempted to step in to our place, but the biden administration is getting back in. that's important working with allies. in many respects

arctic causes a different kind of museum in society often we really think in dichotomies you know it's science versus art or technology versus nature we like to kind of think things as opposites but the more you examine them more in practice there is actually beautiful overlap or there are ways when different things come together you get incredible innovation and that's where creativity really takes root and creativity in arctic costs is an understatement mr acted by like a look at some new realize i was wearing a mask it's just like different from other art. it's really good pictures to get to see if you could but the main goal of arctic house is for visitors to walk away feeling they too just like art can change society even change the future says a message about how in the future if we don't pick up our trash we are like do stuff that we need to it's going to look in the future we're going to be around for like a horror show and it's going to get like our trashing of skin to get wars so like like we just need to take care of what we were given while will eventually stop seeing the c

moment who is after the arctic. we because of our sanctions policy have shut out u.s. and european countries from investing in the arctic. it is an example of what has accumulated in my mind as a necessity for smarter sanctions policy. we need to be able to consider when it is in our national security interest to say it makes sense for the united states and european countries to be working together with russia in the arctic as well as taking appropriate measures. we see the russian buildup in the arctic and nato is very minded about the necessity of building in the art too but i think we need to be able to say does it make sense for us to be working together with russia in the arctic as we already do with the arctic council? but that is very limited activity compared to a commercial cooperation going on. i would like to see us be smarter about sanctions policy i do not want to give anybody guy did that i think we should be just forgiving sanctions on russia right and left. i do think that we need to continue to be t

in the in the arctic areas so it is a considerable and very serious issue. salas mayor says they broadcast the seriousness of the situation effectively to the whole world with their humorous olympic ad it attracted a lot of interest on line people discuss about it. i'm quite sure that this discussion goes on. then. we want also the people who. share what they have done. while tourist guide t.-mo to how worries about the effects of climate change in the future reindeer herder. has to deal with them here and now. she and her 2 children regularly have to take extra fodder out to their herd a direct result of climate change. in that time when there is snow and sand comes raining water and then comes freezing time so they are on the snow and the rain they can't have any food onto the ice without the expensive store bought father the reindeer would go hungry and you know much would have to move her family and livestock somewhere else or give a pretty reindeer her son i know has just begun learning how to throw a lasso and care has been 100 years. leaving mike peac

as we already do with the arctic council? but that is quite limited activities. compared to a commercial cooperation going on. that is an issue i am very interested in. i would like to see us be smarter about sanctions policy i do not want to give anybody guy -- to give anybody the idea that i think we should be forgiving sanctions on russia right left. because i do think that we need to continue to be tough on sanctions with regards to crimea and all other russian misbehavior including the human rights violations like alexei navalny. and also the issues with cyberattack. but let's try to be smarter about it. and that takes a balancing act. that would be a top priority for me if i were inside the kind of big russia desk in a corrupt , administration. -- in the current administration. director rice: the issues with china are also the sanctions with china, some people asked about north korea and climate change and they said that is a place where we have to cooperate with china, but this broad question about china, can you comme
