The Yupik & Global Warming 1/2

CCTV's Mike Kirsch takes us to a remote part of western Alaska where the Yupik call home. These native Alaskans share their history and how global warming is having a disastrous affect on their way of life. The Yupik have high unemployment rates and rely on government welfare programs for income. Hunting and fishing for their food hasn't been a problem, but thinning salmon runs threaten their traditional way of life.

Filmed Over 10 years ago and still relevant today. Happy to see my native village of Akiak and cousin, Mike Williams. Quyana!

this is a compelling story, and I am proud to know Nelson and Mike, as they both added so much value to First Stewards!
