While the Climate Walk team spends several months hiking through Norway, they have encountered few people, many reindeers and occasionally a bear or a moose. With the people living in the most Northern parts of the Scandinavian peninsula, our Wanderers talked about changing weather conditions, expanding energy industries and what that means for their lives. They shared these impressions with us and we share their voices with you.
