Just a few hundred kilometers from the North Pole, a battle is raging between the winners and losers of climate change. The battleground -- the unique aquatic ecosystems locked in the ice of the far north. This video provides a snapshot into the rapidly changing landscape of the far north touching on the collapse of the Markham Ice Shelf and the Ward Hunt Ice shelf.
