An Arctic Hamlet is Sinking Into the Thawing Permafrost | Canada is losing its permafrost to climate change. The Indigenous residents of Tuktoyaktuk know they’ll have to move but don’t agree on when.

Wow that’s a much different picture than I expected …… I assume permafrost melting means ground gets soggy so you need some sort of foundation rework, including on roads.

However if your town slides into the ocean, you can’t really recover

The Indigenous residents of Tuktoyaktuk know they’ll have to move but don’t agree on when.

So in a way, they're no different than Floridians who refuse to move even though they can't actually get their homes insured anymore.

Humans and refusing to face the reality of climate change until it's too late. Name a more iconic duo.
