La loro sussistenza "è scandita dalla natura e dalle stagioni ed è basata su caccia, pesca nel fiume e raccolta dei prodotti della foresta.
Il progetto di estrazione di uranio, approvato senza alcun coinvolgimento della comunità locale, rischia di cancellare tutto questo.
Gli #Iñupiat temono che i lavori possano contaminare le acque fluviali e che la lavorazione dell’uranio possa avere effetti nocivi sulla popolazione."

Alaska. La battaglia degli Iñupiat contro l’estrazione di uranio

Una compagnia canadese ha ottenuto i permessi per estrarre uranio nei pressi di un piccolo villaggio dell’Alaska. La comunità indigena locale degli Iñupiat non ci sta.

#Inuit group calls for bigger role in #ClimateAction

The Inuit Circumpolar Council is seeking to bring the effects of #Arctic #CimateChange on their communities to the attention of participants of the #COP28 conference in Dubai

Alaska Beacon, via Indian Country Today
Dec 8, 2023

"The #InuitCircumpolarCouncil includes representatives in #Alaska, #Canada, #Greenland and #Russia. It is one of the six international #Indigenous organizations that have decision-making power at the eight-nation #ArcticCouncil. The Inuit Circumpolar Council has a COP 28 delegation, to include Alaska members.

"One key issue highlighted in the position paper is the Loss and Damage Fund that was created at last year’s COP 27 held in Egypt. As it is structured now, the fund is focused on helping poorer nations in the #GlobalSouth address the impacts of climate change.

"That leaves a big gap, said Inuit Circumpolar Chair #SaraOlsvig of Greenland.

"'This means that as it is structured now, Inuit and other Arctic #IndigenousPeoples will not have access to the fund, although we are among those most impacted by climate change,' Olsvig said by email. Given the rapid rate of Arctic warming and associated effects, 'the inclusion of Inuit in any policy and decision-making is of great importance,' she said."

I loved #reading The Smell of Other People's Houses. It's a beautifully crafted #book that presents the transition from childhood to adulthood through the eyes of a group of teens in Fairbanks #Alaska. It looks at #community and belonging and uses sense of smell to build its world. The author sensitively portrays #AlaskanNative life through the #Athabascan and #Inupiat characters.

Bonnie-Sue Hitchcock’s first novel is a snapshot of life in Fairbanks, Alaska in 1970. Told by a small group of teenagers, we see the world through their eyes; the smallness of the town, the …

First they take the traditional lifestyle away from the #Iñupiat people¹ by #drilling for more #oil and #gas, thus destroying their land, then they take it by #climatecollapse. Probably they're even arguing that the Iñupiat are loosing their life grounds anyhow since #melting is underway.

Is there any chance that Mr. Biden will decide against the #WillowProject, adhering to his formerly made promise to steer the US away from fossiles?
