Summary: Narrated by David Suzuki, Arctic Meltdown is a three-part series that documents the drastic changes in Canada's North. Global warming is opening a wealth of business opportunities there, but can the Arctic's sensitive ecosystem handle the strain of all this industry? The Arctic Passage the centuries-old dream of explorers, to establish a direct northern shipping route between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, may become a reality. This could be a great boon for business, but it raises serious concerns about who will control and protect the Arctic's fragile marine environment.
