Climate Crisis

The Russian Security Council believes climate change in the Arctic will pose a serious threat to national security, a council representative confirms in a newspaper interview.

The Barents Euro-Arctic Council (BEAC) plays a key-role in how to adapt to changing living conditions caused by climate change, and BEAC should be used much more effectively for environmental work, said State Secretary Heidi Sørensen today at the opening of the Conference on Climate Change in the Barents Region.
