Greenlandic fisherman Helgi Áargil faces an increasingly uncertain future on the fjords, where he spends days at sea with his dog, Molly, and the northern lights. Last year, his vessel was trapped by ice from a calving glacier; this year, unusually heavy rainfall has been the challenge. His livelihood is equally volatile, with a single trip potentially yielding 100,000 Danish kroner (£11,500) or nothing at all.
This unpredictability is a direct consequence of the Arctic's rapidly accelerating climate change, a crisis that poses profound questions for Greenland. The semiautonomous Danish territory, which once drew global attention due to Donald Trump's interest in acquiring it, now grapples with a warming rate faster than any other region, fuelled by fossil fuel emissions.
