The Arctic Resource Center for Suicide Prevention offers multiple resources for survivors.
FAIRBANKS, Alaska - Suicide can be a difficult topic to discuss, which makes it all the more important to realize that hope and help are available. The Arctic Resource Center for Suicide Prevention is doing its part to be there for those hard discussions.
“People who have lost someone to suicide are about six times more likely to die by suicide themselves,” Dr. James Wisland, the founder of ARCSP, pointed out. “And so helping people recover from a suicide loss is a very critical preventative concern.” “Some of the more ancient stories that deal with life and death,” he elaborated, “sometimes that really provides a kind of stability for these folks whose world has been turned upside down after a suicide loss. When folks learn that people have been struggling with this issue for not just the last fifty years but for the last three or four millennium, it provides kind of that stable platform for them.

Beaver activity in the Arctic increases emission of methane greenhouse gasThe climate-driven advance of beavers into the Arctic tundra is causing the release of more methane -- a greenhouse gas -- into the atmosphere. Beavers, as everyone knows, like to make dams. Those dams cause flooding, which inundates vegetation and turns Arctic streams and creeks into a series of ponds. Those beaver ponds and surrounding inundated vegetation can be devoid of oxygen and rich with organic sediment, which releases methane as the material decays.
