In focusing on cryospheric environments in the Canadian Arctic, Svalbard Arctic Archipelago, and the Hindu Kush Himalayas, Learning from Ice aims to generate insights into the methods and practices that produce knowledge of environmental change and their attendant politics within cold climates. In doing so the project coalesces disparate – and oftentimes incommensurate – forms of knowledge across a wide range of spatial scales and contexts that, when taken together create a more complex understanding of our current ecological condition.
