And over the past two years, ten of Svalbard’s glaciers have retreated entirely onto land.
Also read that the North Atlantic mackerel catch advice more than doubles, conservative politicians want it to be cheaper to live and create jobs in Northern Norway and a new report on competitiveness in the Nordics is on its way.
