Exploring the toll of climate change on Alaska Native villages
The PBS program “Frontline” examines the financial, cultural, and human toll of climate change on the western Alaska coastline and the Native people that have always called it home.
Hopi producer Patty Talahongva takes a fresh look at the warming temperatures, increasingly destructive storms, and retreating wildlife that are forcing a drastic change in how some Alaska Native live.
Join Native America Calling to hear about the issue from those involved in the documentary.
