Working together to save the Arctic: 20 years of Arctic Council
Description: Why do we need an Arctic Council? It is an important intergovernmental forum. Its membership is limited to the eight Arctic states, which means the eight countries that have land territory above the Arctic Circle. The Arctic is a place in the world that is suffering from the very rapid negative effects of climate change. So it's a place where the countries come together to talk about the issues that are affecting all of us. [Source: Deutsche Welle]
