00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,004

Narration: There is one place where we're seeing

climate change unfold faster

2

00:00:04,004 --> 00:00:05,338

than anywhere else on Earth.

3

00:00:05,338 --> 00:00:06,673

Here.

4

00:00:07,774 --> 00:00:10,310

In fact, temperatures

in the Arctic and boreal regions

5

00:00:10,310 --> 00:00:13,747

are rising nearly four times

as fast as those in the mid-latitudes.

6

00:00:14,214 --> 00:00:17,684

That's why NASA has teamed up

with local partners to better understand

7

00:00:17,684 --> 00:00:20,520

the vulnerability

and resilience of these ecosystems,

8

00:00:20,987 --> 00:00:24,457

while also gathering valuable data

that will help future Earth-observing

9

00:00:24,457 --> 00:00:26,226

satellites.

10

00:00:26,226 --> 00:00:28,028

From space, air

and on the ground,

11

00:00:28,328 --> 00:00:31,631

we'll see how scientists are piecing

together the story of the Arctic -

12

00:00:31,931 --> 00:00:34,768

from how it is changing to what that means

for our planet.

13

00:00:36,169 --> 00:00:39,672

Because, as they say,

what happens in the Arctic doesn't stay in

14

00:00:39,672 --> 00:00:41,307

the Arctic.
