20130305_P3050061.jpg Huge chunks of peat eroded from the side of the Upper Esk by extreme flooding in the Lake District, UK. The moorland peat is a huge carbon sink, which releases its stored carbon when damaged. This is a classic example of a climate change feedback loop. Flooding, more frequent as a result of climate change, is releasing yet more carbon, thus further increasing climate change.

366W9501.jpg For the Inuit residents of Shishmaref, a tiny island between Alaska and Siberia, climate change is a double whammy. Firstly sea ice that used to envelop the island around late September is now not forming until December. this leaves the island vulnerable to storms that have already washed many houses into the sea, leading to them being referred to as the worlds first refugees from global warming. Other houses have had to be moved back from the edge. Secondly the animals they rely on as part of their subsistance existance are becoming harder to find, as they migrate further north, away from the island. This shot shows a hunter returning from a hunting trip with a goose.

366W0446.jpg For the Inuit residents of Shishmaref, a tiny island between Alaska and Siberia, climate change is a double whammy. Firstly sea ice that used to envelop the island around late September is now not forming until December. this leaves the island vulnerable to storms that have already washed many houses into the sea, leading to them being referred to as the worlds first refugees from global warming. Other houses have had to be moved back from the edge. Secondly the animals they rely on as part of their subsistance existance are becoming harder to find, as they migrate further north, away from the island. This shot shows an hunting camp used by the Shishmaref Inuits on the mainland by the exit of Serpentine River.
