AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoArctic Connectivity: The EU is advancing a subsea cable linking Greenland directly with Europe, with a possible extension to Canada and onward connections to Asia. It has committed $119 million to Greenland’s secure communications and the project, which would need icebreaker support to build and maintain. Greenland Networks: Telecom operator Tusass is working with Denmark’s Cibicom on deployment, quality checks and documentation, bringing specialist expertise to infrastructure challenged by Greenland’s climate and geography. Ice-Sheet Research: Sediment from Camp Century suggests northern Greenland was ice-free about 416,000 years ago, when summers were roughly 4.7°C warmer than today—a finding that highlights how long-lasting warmth can drive major ice retreat. Climate Warning: A new report from polar scientists and UNEP warns that crossing 1.5°C of warming risks lasting damage to glaciers, ice sheets, sea ice and permafrost, with every extra fraction of a degree increasing the harm.
