Svalbard Airport, the northernmost airport in the world, is battling climate change.

Located in Norway's Svalbard archipelago, this airport faces the risk of collapse due to thawing permafrost. Airport manager Ragnhild Kommisrud states that the runway must be checked daily during the summer months.

The warming of permafrost increases the risk of landslides and avalanches. The airport keeps extra staff and supplies on hand to cope with these challenges.

Electricity production in Svalbard is a crucial issue in combating climate change. The local community aims to help prevent global warming.
