i'm trying to block mining projects and clock visitors at the town of na sock in south greenland. a statue of leaf ericsson, the viking, who said to have discovered america 400 years before columbus gazes out overseen. that might surprise you. it's the end of summer and the sheep had been rounded up for market. farming is part of the way of life in the south, but these lands also hold new possibilities. i headed up a mountain valley near the town of na sack. the rocks here hold some of the world's richest deposits of rare of minerals. this is the sides of an old uranium mine. it's long been decommissioned. but now international mining companies want to dig deep again. the rock we see all around the same was for 3 or 4 kilometers beneath the earth's crust. and then about a 1000000000 years ago, these mountains just rid up. and they reckon that within this area alone, there are one and a half 1000000 tons of rare with minerals, with another $26000000.00 tons at a site nearby. and all of that combined is enough to supply the wealth total need. a rare earth minerals for a 115 years, w

greenland, to say the least. so we've come here to the south to find out more about the science behind the arts. well, the 1st we're heading for iglesia and andrea here is, i'll skip or she knows these roses very well. where are we heading and what are we hoping to see? where the rental collateral iglesia an essay. we adeline, that the right, the ca, calvin, a new iceman, but it isn't really active this year. so on the way we can already see here at the end of some of the sea ice, the winter sea ice beginning to form a thin layer on the surface, the field. but it shouldn't stop us today. it we went to play to the movie, meet when the i slowly the arctic is booming, twice as fast as the rest of the planet. which means the c doesn't freeze as much as it used to. unless sea ice means more sunlight is absorbed into the ocean, the warmer ocean melt the glasses faster from below. while warm air temperatures mel the glassy as an ice sheet fasted from above. meaning more icebergs carved into the ocean. the ice sheet diminishes and his own going sea level rise around the world. this is how it sounds and
