The climate change is a threat to an Inuit community who are primarily whale hunters of the Arctic region in Northern Canada. Because the climate change might greatly influence the ecosystem, their cultures (social impacts), and economy.
First, the climate change will greatly interrupt the ecosystem in the Arctic region, because of the permafrost. Including warmer ocean currents that was caused by climate change. When the active layer is decomposed and reaching too much, because of the methane(stronger than green gas) was produced by climate change. Then the lose of permafrost case bodies of water was going to sink into the ground deeper, which might trigger numerous lose of lakes and wetlands. The lost of the lakes and wetlands caused by …show more content…
The Inuit people relied fishing and hunting, such as hunting for animals like whales and caribou and reindeer. Or even went fishing for species such as various types of fishes. In addition, they need these jobs for their own diets too. If the ecosystem has been changed like the first example of losing different species of animals in the Arctic, then their cultures and traditions might become terribly destroyed. The Inuit people will suddenly lose their jobs for hunting, then it will affect their ability to migrate to other countries and having the allocation of new jobs. But the crucial issue is that all the knowledge, traditions the Inuit people had were most base on hunting and fishing. The Inuit people no matter they are whale hunter or not might need to change their diets. Because the food chain can be disturbed and allow less access to animals that are a large part of their diet. Also with recent allergies to native food, diets will be shifted and this could be a result of climate change. Finally, when the ice was shrinking because of climate change, this might even hamper their traditions for transportation, it also might become a challenge for whale hunters (Inuit people) easier to catch fish, hunting animals or even walking very harsh on these Arctic …show more content…
