There's No Word for Robin |
In Canada, the warning signs that global warming may be having a long-term effect on the climate are subtle. In the far north of Canada, where the land is defined by ice, ice is slowly melting - and for the first time, people who live in Northern Canada are seeing plants and animals much more familiar to those of us in the South. Producer Bob Carty of the CBC travels north to see how people are adapting to the changes. This is part of our special international collaboration called Global Perspectives: Nature in the Balance.
There's No Word For Robin was produced by Bob Carty of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. It originally aired as part of our international collaboration Global Perspectives, Nature in the Balance.
