Meet the people most affected by petroleum development and climate change in
North America. Anthropologist Harvard Ayers, businessman Dave Harman and
college professor Landon Pennington interviewed 100 Native people and other
residents of the Arctic region of Canada and Alaska from the Mackenzie Delta
to the Chukchi Sea. These Gwich'in, Inupiat, and Inuvialuit, as well as
transplants from the South, share the stories of their lives and their hopes
for the future of the region.  

 

Professor Ayers' lecture will be based on his research for the recently
published book:
