S01E06 The Inuit - Survivors Of The Future
Episode Overview
Les travels to the remote Baffin Island in Nunavut, Canada, to explore a small Inuit community known as Pond Inlet. Here, the blend of modern technology with traditional practices has helped the community thrive in extreme temperatures that can plummet to minus 40 degrees Celsius. However, Pond Inlet is now confronting its most significant threat: climate change. Les observes how Western advancements and indigenous wisdom come together as the community navigates swift economic and cultural shifts, all while the ice continues to diminish in the North.
