How Churchill, Manitoba is dealing with climate change.

Churchill is a remote town in Canada that has seen many changes. It used to be a military base, but when the military left, the town had to find new ways to survive.

Churchill decided to focus on tourism, especially polar bear watching. People from all over the world come to see the polar bears, which brings money to the town.

However, climate change is affecting the polar bears, and there might be fewer bears in the future. Churchill is already preparing for this by offering other tourist attractions, like whale watching and seeing the Northern Lights.

The town has also faced challenges with its port and train line, which are essential for bringing in supplies. When these were damaged, the town worked hard to take ownership and fix them, ensuring they would keep running.

Churchill is a good example of a town that adapts to change and finds solutions to its problems. The people of Churchill are resilient and work together to make their town a good place to live and visit.
