The northernmost regions are expected to undergo changes stronger than
many other areas in the world. Even if emissions are stopped now, the effects of
climate change will impact people so greatly, that adapting to them in the
coming decades seems inevitable
(source of information: Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)).
Sectors like reindeer husbandry, forestry and fishing, which rely on natural
resources, are very vulnerable to such changes.
