The Spin

Left narrative

Human actions are causing the radical transformation of the Arctic, leading to natural disasters like typhoons, wildfires, and increased rain. As a result, indigenous people are having their lives uprooted, and more than 400K people are having their way of life threatened. Humanity must do whatever it can to stop this dangerous trend.

Right narrative

Despite all the alarmist rhetoric about the Arctic, studies and temperature reconstructions show the region was actually warmer over the past 10,000 years than it is today. Agenda-driven climate extremists may hate these facts, but the Earth's climate is constantly changing, and that includes the Arctic.
