| Abstract |
The Arctic is one of the planet's last pristine areas where indigenous peoples pursue their traditional lifestyles. However, as Europe's dependence on the Arctic's resources grows, the region is coming under increasing pressure from unsustainable development, land fragmentation, climate change and pollution. EEA and UNEP have jointly prepared this report to raise awareness among policy makers and the public about the issues involved and why Europe should care. |
