Scientists alarmed by Greenland wildfires
Scientists are concerned about two wildfires that occurred in Greenland in early June, near Sisimiut and Kujalleq. The fires, happening unusually early in the summer, are linked to dry conditions caused by little snowfall and rainfall, combined with high temperatures. Experts suggest that climate change is increasing the likelihood of such fires in Arctic, ice-free tundra regions, which release significant amounts of carbon into the atmosphere.
