In the fourth of five videos highlighting content from the ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ’s Changing Arctic: Energy Issues and Trends report, ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Center for Arctic Policy Studies’ Amy Lovecraft and ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Center for Arctic Security and Resilience’s Brandon Boylan discuss ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ’s role in making the United States an Arctic nation and how the state’s energy future is dependent on those relations. Boylan and Lovecraft convey the key points that state leaders must consider when navigating decisions against the backdrop of a changing Arctic.

The University of ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ recently released the first in a series of informational reports designed to aid state leaders as ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ confronts a rapidly changing Arctic and the increasingly globalized North.
