If people aren’t exactly cheering for climate change, many are focused on the opportunities global warming could bring to this cold-weather town. Yet the mood in Churchill is surprisingly sunny. Most of all, it is the fear that Americans won’t come visit anymore. It is broken sewer lines and taller trees, longer summers and bigger snowstorms and moose where caribou used to go. In Churchill, an isolated town perched on the southern edge of the Arctic, climate change is not a looming danger. This is a story about what comes next for a small town that bills itself as the Polar Bear Capital of the World. This is not another story about saving Hudson Bay’s polar bears.
