The Sámi are an indigenous people of the Arctic, inhabiting a region known to them as Sápmi.
But the Arctic is changing, bringing new challenges to the Sámi and their way of life.
This map by @cmshintani explores this story of struggle and resolve.

Despite accounting for only 0.025% of the mass of Earth’s crust, carbon is vital for life on our planet.
@cmshintani and @g_fiske of @WoodwellClimate share a gorgeous map showing where carbon is stored in US forests.

This map art by @g_fiske depicts the Kuskokwim River at the confluence of the Kwethluk River in Alaska. Three of the @woodwellarctic partner communities are within this image: Kwethluk, Akiachak, and Akiak. The Kwethluk river is also a major focus for Science On The Fly.
#HurricaneHelene is a tragedy. After making a bilingual news map to show its path and precipitation, I felt driven to contribute more, so I made another map to help identifying areas with power outage by comparing satellite images. Hope this effort counts. https://t.co/Rh9MR3ugDM
We’re starting Climate Week with a #MapMonday from @cmshintani that shows what's at stake.
Wildfire danger days, or days considered hot and dry enough for fire, have become a more common occurrence in the Amazon, where previously it was too wet to burn.
