For instance, policies that encourage more investment in oil and gas activities will escalate risks from climate change and cause long-term environmentalharm.

But over the past eight years, the number of people coming to see its breathtaking waterfalls, geysers, volcanoes and glaciers has more than quadrupled.

ARCTIC COUNTRIES NEED TO LEAD THE CUT OF CO2 The hottest temperature ever measured above the Arctic circle was recorded in Verkhoyansk, Siberia this past June. In fact, the + 38.6°C reading was just one of many highs that made June 2020 in Siberia five degrees warmer than any June from 1981 to 2010. A recent Oxford University-led study shows man-made climate change due to carbon emissions made this Siberian heatwave 600 times more likely.NARWHAL TRACKER
