As rising temperatures and melting permafrost are changing the landscape of the tundra, heat conservation is a great way to minimise our impact on the environment. In this video, National Geographic Explorer and ecologist, Dr. Isla Myers-Smith, explains the effects of climate change on the tundra ecosystem, highlighting the importance of both large-scale solutions and the everyday actions of individuals as we look towards a sustainable future.
“It is critical that we understand the implications of Arctic greening. Choosing heat-free technology will lower energy consumption, minimising our impact on the environment.”
