Climate change costly for Inuit

A new study recommends the Federal Government should help Inuit pay for the increasing costs of climate change. It says Arctic climate change is already costing Canada’s Inuit more money, noting the costs of adapting are falling on Inuit families least able to shoulder them. Researchers say families who depend most on hunting often have the least money to afford new necessities. James Ford of Montreal’s McGill University says “Inuit can adapt to climate change,” but he adds “we have a number of concerns about whether Inuit can afford to adapt.”
