- The boreal forest is one of the largest trappers of carbon dioxide in the world. But as Alaska warms, once frozen land is now up for grabs. Jonathan Vigliotti takes a look at the farming boom in Alaska and the pushback it's receiving.

Alaska is twice the size of Texas geographically, at least. But it’s one of the least populated states in America. There are probably more animals than human beings there. So it’s an ideal spot for farming.

lol Great comment :0
Why does it seem to me these new companies just want to see rural America crumble. It's as though they think us Alaskans are unfit to exist. Let alone cultivate and develop our lands and culture.
I still can't believe the Seahawks lost the superbowl
Perfect 👍🏻 let’s go pineapples in Alaska
That and legalized weed😂
They should start out organic since it’s clean and never been farmed before. That would be ideal and non-gmo keep it form contaminants. It’s isolated and a great place to experiment.
Is something similar happening in Canada, Greenland, Scandinavia, and Siberia?
Hi! Dane here!
Southern Scandinavia is nothing but farmland and a few cities. It has been like that for a long time, it was cause for mass immigration to the americas in the 1800s
Northern Scandinavia isn't as fortunate, especially not Norway but I think that has more to do with Norway mostly being a mountain range, as Scandinavia is generally a lot warmer than Alaska due to the gulf stream.
And greenland is indeed having an increase in agriculture down in the south, they still rely on food imports though, and are trying to figure out what sort of resource they should focus on, to hopefully be self sustaining enough to become independant from Denmark.
Farm organic to keep top soil healthy and produce crops with essential minerals in!
And do not cut down forests!
Organic food is good for your health and the earth.
Did Vigliotti write his own script? Should have an editor to fix his grammar or maybe CBS should hire journalists who can write.
These are the people who will scream climate change and blame it on humans in 100,000 years when it all refreezes again
all over the world owns the land
Bye2 nature😣
That is nature
make sure the land is AMERICAN OWNED!!!
Global warming
End of ice age
Earth has been completely tropical or temperate before many times. And life of all forms thrived. Humans will be fine. Life adapts, comes and goes. Nothing is ever lost.
Always have somme nagatives. Suckers who stand against progress 😅😅
Climate change is good. Alaska will prosper and next bread basket. Just keep out factory farms
Wow!
That's short sighted!
Exactly correct. Forbid factory farms
More consumers
More food needs to be grown
More forests are cut down
More CO2
Melting of glaciers
Dried up rivers
More wells are dug
Reduced crop yield
Poor nations go hungry
A lot fewer humans
Disguting . Stop destroying everything
The individuals I almost feel sorry for is Germany, The country that Laughed at a ‘Tall Blond man’ that used to run America, When this Tall Man warned against trusting Russia. Everyone Laughed at his words, / Well, I’m not laughing about this, I blame the German leadership. ‘Now’, German citizens may freeze during this ‘Cold snap’ winter. (Even some of my distant relatives.). I hope all these individuals are not still ‘Laughing’ , Because, I feel they are partly the cause of all their citizens ‘demise’. (‘Mark my words’, - ‘People will freeze this winter’. I Wish there was something I could do.). All I can do is ‘Call Out’ the people that are responsible for this situation. And just think, Immediately after Joe Biden took office, Joe Biden said publicly, “Vladimir Putin is a Role Model Leader” - Doesn’t Joe Biden have such ‘Great judgment’? (Rhetorical.). China has us exactly where they want us, Thanks to Joe Biden, And the Biden family. (He’s not the only one to blame, Senator Swalwell has Immense he’s experience with Chinese spies.). Where was the FBI? (I know they’re still sitting at their desk. After such failure, I don’t understand why they still have a job. - But, They do.). ‘Incompetence’, ‘At it’s Finest!’ That’s how many Americans feel, To this day.
M.S, You are right about Joe Biden Saying “Putin is a Terrorist’. Yet, That’s AFTER JOE BIDEN PUBLICLY CLAIMED THAT PUTIN WAS A ‘ROLE MODEL LEADER’. / Did you pay any attention to what Joe Biden said the first year of his term? - Joe Biden praised Putin. I saw it with my own eyes. So, don’t call me a ‘liar’. - ‘Check your facts’. I have. I know the Democratic Party wants to hide facts like this. That’s just too bad! ‘You can’t put it back in the bag’. (I’d say the same thing to Trump, I thought his rally on January 6th. was a horrible idea.). If either president has done wrong, I hope they go to prison. Like Obama said, “Nobody is above the law”. (‘That was a real joke’, Especially, Since it was the Obama administration that warned Joe Biden -Directly- about his son’s ‘Foreign transactions’. Yet, Wouldn’t take any ‘Legal action’ that would be required by a Government Agent when there is possible ‘Criminal action’(s).). I wouldn’t be surprised if they both suffer from their ‘Karma’. Serves them right! (Seems like we’re surrounded by a bunch of ‘Corrupt morons’.).
I'm going to vote for President Biden again.
That’s what’s so wonderful about America. You have the right to vote for whoever you want.
I'm going to vote for President Biden too. Student Loan forgiveness won my heart.
