Great North

Patrick Martin

Report from Norway in Svalbard (Spitsbergen) on global warming in the Far North. This through, among other things, the former Soviet mining town of Pyramiden (the Russians could extract ore with the Norwegians' agreement). For 18 years, Pyramiden has been an abandoned ghost town since the fall of the USSR.
