Tour of the Arctic (2/2) – from Greenland to Alaska | DW Documentary
Two film crews explore the spectacular wilderness of the Arctic. The people who live there face dramatic changes. Part two takes viewers from East Greenland to Alaska.
The region around the North Pole is one of the greatest and least-known wildernesses in the world – and it’s rapidly changing due to global warming. 350 people, most of them Inuit, live in Ittoqqortoormiit in Greenland. The nearest settlement is on neighboring Iceland. Almost 800 kilometers of Arctic Ocean separate the two islands. The film team accompanies an Inuit family through Scoresby Sound, a fjord system on the eastern coast of Greenland. They travel hundreds of kilometers in small boats through pack ice, passing icebergs as high as skyscrapers. On the way they meet whalers who are hunting for narwhals in summer. In this Inuit culture, narwhal skin and polar bear goulash have ensured survival for thousands of years. Greenpeace and WWF activists want to stop whaling and polar bear hunting – but this poses a threat to the indigenous way of life on Greenland. On the expedition through the world’s largest fjord system, the team learns about the consequences of global warming: melting permafrost and a rapid increase in greenhouse gases. The changes are worrying. Some say they have brought benefits to the far north — the ice breaks up earlier and so too does the hunting season. However, the risks outweigh this benefit. The knowledge and way of life that have been passed down from generation to generation may soon be unsustainable.

The ghastly Trump cult who follow the world’s greatest con man
I’m so sick of these documentaries from dw randomly popping on my queue
The Narwahl and polar bears look so delicious. i guess vegetarians won’t do well in the Arctic.

I live in Arizona. In the mountains. We’ve
Been living through a 20 drought. This year 2022 we’ve gotten so much rain this summer . Been on the mountain since 1995. I truly believe there are just to many humans. The United States are blamed for so much. It’s called Global Warming. Climate change. Or wtf ever .
德國外交部長對中國極度不友善，
影響我對德國之聲的觀點！
德國外交部長極度傲慢，
試問她最近三年內到過中國嗎？！
《中國三年一大變》！
我承認對德國具有極大偏見！
傲慢和偏見都會使視野失真！
但是我是德國網紅‘’阿福‘’的粉絲，阿福是上海女婿！
經由阿福對德國的介紹，我對德國的成就非常佩服！
大德是綠黨的成員，而老漢曾經是環保的工作者！
環保的名言是“萬物息息相關”！
所以德國的環境必然和中國的環境息息相關！
中國的量體很大，因此忽播視中國而談論環保和地球氣後候變遷都屬二手傳播的資料！
歡迎到中國参訪，網紅阿福應該是不錯的導覽人選！
Ask why you are a supporter of Obama?
All of this climate change i ask you all one ☝️question????? WHO is to be blamed 🌍💭💭💭🤔🤔💭💭💭💭🤔
If you going Alaska on a tennis shoe that’s totally on you. You get out on the snow or not keep a snow boat right next to you 24/7.
What amazing beauty
👍🇦🇷🌎

Polar bear goulash? Seriously?
Wonderful two-part documentary. I like how many different people and groups were included, with their different needs and perspectives. DW always produces such high-quality documentaries.
We’re still a world surviving on fossil fuels…
Until the infrastructure is converted to green energy , its insane to shut down our most prolific resource in the north..
Tesla & Ford couldnt replace combustion engines to battery powered if they built nothing but for 20 yrs …
Wind turbines produce less than 3% of our electricity…
Solar the same.
But we are the only country that has purposely shut down our oil industry in favor of Saudi oil…
Its pure insanity .
And bending to politicised environmental groups has threatened our security in the world…
Russia invaded Ukraine because of it wealth from oil…
While our president goes to Saudi Arabia , asking them to not cut production until midterm elections are over…
More insanity !
We protect Saudi Arabia from Iraq & other mid eastern country’s .
Why ? Their oil !
Oil we have , but shut down the minute this Biden clown took office…
Insanity !
in everything there is a clear sign that the creator God almighty is One, nice documentry
Chinese has sent the spies at artic also 🫣🫣
Last three years everything has changed??
So much of Alaska is uninhabitable for humans but so much of it is beautiful beyond words.
It is very disturbing watching humans kill whales while polar bears go extinct
TO FOLLOW tRUMP WILL KILL U ALL FOR SURE CAN’T U SEE WHAT IS TRULY HAPPENING TO THE LAND
The world is inhabited by different types of people , colour race and religions , but we have to be broadminded to accept and respect all these people.
Salam brather like love your butyful progress and your very clear attention voice loved tanks take care

Thank you DW. You never disappoint. You always cover the most important issues in the most impeccable ways
The sunset at 24:32 is just beautiful…
oh god we are all so fucked
I hope it’s not a dangerous change in weather..
is that….. from the Game of Thrones soundtrack??
Pity these beautiful unicorns of the sea . Narwhals
Good job. Thank you
Not!!! this happens century after century baloney sandwiches are good

i see this flickering star every day in the Netherlands.
online someone said this was beqause of the prismatic effect.(flickering in green blue and red.)
but i don’t believe it since there are only 2 objects in the sky doing this, but other stars that are also low on the horizon never show this flickering.
does anyone have an idea what this is?
Thank goodness for the Canadian Rangers and their attack Helicopters of the North. Keeping those Russians out. Protecting Americans at the very first line. Most Rangers are Native Inuit Eskimos with many Afghanastan Tours. The Talibans were absolutely terrified of the Men from the Snow and ice. Russians know better. The Canadian Rangers are ruthless Killers on the Battlefield! Semper FI !!
✨🌎 Very interesting & difficult Field Reporting ~Excellent Production Values- Good Clear narration 👍
They used this kind of life so its normal for them the ice, the polar bear long winter and so on
Very nice 👍 documentarie Laarne a lot 🙏
Great documentary to watch while it’s a 110 degrees outside.
This is an amazing documentary
Watching from tropical islands here in Southeast Asia. I do not think I will ever complain that we have no winter , no snow and ice , it can be so terribly hostile .
Through natural climate change, the area’s climate is back to the 1890s like Finland and Svalbard.
Thank you for such an informational documentary! The narration was great! It would seem that there should not be any surprised reactions to what has slowly been occurring & will continue to occur, as a result of man’s influence, in all parts of the world! But especially in areas where human industry is built one& relies on the reaping the natural resources. We’re responsible bc we depend on & use these natural resources to
live. We’ve got to make changes NOW, everyone has to be willing to change! Otherwise, we’re going to create a terrible future for our current & future generations!
We’ve used technology to its extreme & now we need to reverse things – bc even changes today will take a long time to show significant improvement!
We’re all experiencing drastic weather & humidity changes, that never existed 50 years ago!!
Thank you for this outstanding show!!
Polar bear gulash? I didn’t know people ate polar bear meat
Jack eat all of the f***** moose 😂
it sad to say,,most humans are number one destroys earth creatures and also the climate change. destroys everything.
