366W0576_climate change_husky.jpg Sled dogs and sled in Saariselka Northern Finland. Climate change has already raised average temperatures by 0.7 oC over the last century. Winters are getting both warmer and wetter and in Southern Finland winters are becoming increasingly snow free. As permafrost melts across the Arctic huge quantities of carbon dioxide and methane could be released leading to even further warming. Such iconic winter scenes could in a relatively short space of time become a thing of the past.

366W0059.jpg For the Inuit residents of Shishmaref, a tiny island between Alaska and siberia, global warming is a double whammy. Firstly sea ice that used to envelop the island around late September is now not forming until December. this leaves the island vulnerable to storms that have already washed 10 houses into the sea, leading to them being referred to as the worlds first refugees from global warming. Other houses have had to be moved back from the edge. Secondly the animals they rely on as part of their subsistance existance are becoming harder to find, as they migrate further north, away from the island.
Here sled dogs are still used in winter to tow traditional sledges.
