Climate Change and Agriculture - What Can Be Done?

The Arctic is warming four times faster than the global average temperature. Ice caps are melting, forcing the indigenous Inuit community living around the Northwest passage to change their way of life. Polar bears and wildlife are losing their habitats and the ability to hunt.

Further south, Middle Eastern countries are facing temperatures above 50 Celsius more regularly.

We speak to people living in these rapidly warming parts of the world and find out why their countries are warming faster than others and what impact it is having.
