Brief

MIT Technology Review reports on initiatives to combat Arctic fires and preserve permafrost carbon stores. The piece highlights a 2021 wildfire at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks campus as part of the wider context.

Why It Matters

If permafrost and its stored carbon are not protected from increasing Arctic fires, there could be larger climate and ecological consequences.
