IMPACT ON ARCTIC
COMMUNITIES
Social Impact: The changing environment can lead to the loss of
traditional practices and cultural identity for many indigenous
communities. Displacement and changes in living conditions can
also affect social structures.

Economic Impact: Melting ice in the Arctic can open up new


shipping routes, potentially boosting economic activities.
However, this can also lead to conflicts over resources and
disrupt existing economic activities, particularly those
dependent on the traditional Arctic environment

Environmental Impact: The melting of ice has profound


consequences for the Arctic ecosystem. Loss of sea ice affects
marine life, and the warming Arctic climate contributes to global
sea level rise.

IMPACT ON THE UK
Social Impact: While the direct impact on the UK may not be as
pronounced as in the Arctic, the rise in sea levels could affect coastal
communities. Increased frequency and intensity of extreme weather
events can impact daily life and create challenges for infrastructure.

Economic Impact: The UK, being a coastal nation, may face economic
challenges due to potential changes in shipping routes and the impact
on fisheries. Additionally, the need for adaptation measures can have
economic implications.

Environmental Impact: The environmental impact includes potential


changes in weather patterns, affecting agriculture and biodiversity.
Rising sea levels can lead to loss of coastal habitats and may also flood
places like farms, power station etc.
