Talk Description:

Forty years ago, Jon Waterman took his first journey to Alaska’s Noatak River and was astonished by the Arctic's abundant wildlife, the strange landscape, and its otherworldly light. He continued on dozens of explorations throughout the remote North. Over time he began to notice how climate change had taken a toll—the Arctic is now warming nearly 4 times faster than the rest of the world—and his 45-minute lecture shows how this beautiful vast frontier is beset by a climate crisis, along with the actions we can all take to reduce carbon emissions.
