Because of climate change, ice sheets that traditionally protected the island from northern seas are fast melting, as crashing waves erode this tiny piece of land (now half the size it was a few decades ago). Disappearing ice also makes it difficult to hunt the seals, walruses, and bowhead whales on which this community largely subsists.
