At the edge of the world, climate change is no longer a debate—it is simply a part of everyday life.
The effects of climate change have been felt for years along the extreme northern and southern edges of the Americas. In northern Canada and Chilean Patagonia, residents no longer ask if climate change will alter their lands; instead, they adapt to its impacts as part of their daily reality.
Extremes of the Americas examines climate change through a local lens, following both the people and wildlife that inhabit the farthest reaches of North and South America. Through their stories, the series reveals the challenges, resilience, and adaptations required to survive in some of the world’s most remote environments.
