Arctic Challenges and Opportunities - - A Danish Perspective
ARCTIC CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES: A DANISH PERSPECTIVE
Presentation by the Ambassador of Denmark to the United States, Peter Taksoe-Jensen
Tuesday, November 8, 2011 3:00pm, 041 Haldeman Center
The Arctic is opening up to the world. That means new challenges and new opportunities: How do we handle the consequences of the melting ice? How do we make use of the resources in the Arctic - oil, gas and minerals? How do we at the same time protect the fragile Arctic nature and environment? How do we ensure the best possible safety of the increasing navigation in Arctic waters? And how do we ensure the best living conditions of the Arctic peoples?
These are among the questions the Danish Ambassador will seek to answer.
Events are free and open to the public unless otherwise noted.
