#5 Energy, Reindeers and the North

While the Climate Walk team spends several months hiking through
Norway, they have encountered few people, many reindeers and
occasionally a bear or a moose. With the people living in the
most Northern parts of the Scandinavian peninsula, our Wanderers
talked about changing weather conditions, expanding energy
industries and what that means for their lives. They shared these
impressions with us and we share their voices with you.
