We know that climate change is happening and why, but there is a lack of action, only reaction. Simultaneously, global developments in geopolitics, security, and green transition force the Arctic to react.
The Arctic has bountiful resources and a strategic location, both of global significance. But what does it take to incite proactive measures? We need justified actions, considering all voices, so that the Arctic can offer a solution. There are many opportunities, but can we pursue them all? We need to act now on climate change, biodiversity, and health, to name just a few, but also prepare for future consequences. Are we so immersed in putting out the fires that we have lost the driver’s seat? How can we take control of the situation and ensure we are acting and not solely reacting?
