This Arctic mine is a warning the world must heed
In today's WIRED DAILY, we explain why an Arctic mine is a warning the world must heed and lay out how to save Citymapper.
Eric Ootoovak remembers a time when the icy waters north of Baffin Island in the Canadian Arctic were teeming with narwhals. The mythical-looking sea creatures are woven into the culture of Inuit hunters like Ootoovak, who have caught these marine mammals for millennia, eating their meat, blubber and skin, which are packed with vitamins Inuit rely on to get through the long, dark winters.
"The narwhals used to be abundant, by the thousands, and we don't see that today," says Ootoovak, the chair of the Mittimatalik Hunters and Trappers Organization, based in the Inuit hamlet of Pond Inlet on northern Baffin Island.
