  • Sheep Farming As “An Arduous Livelihood”
    University of Alberta Cultivating Place, Livelihood, and the Future: An Ethnography of Dwelling and Climate in Western Greenland by Naotaka Hayashi A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology ©Naotaka Hayashi Spring 2013 Edmonton, Alberta Permission is hereby granted to the University of Alberta Libraries to reproduce single copies of this thesis and to lend or sell such copies for private, scholarly or scientific research purposes only.

Abstract In order to investigate how Inuit Greenlanders in western Greenland are experiencing, responding to, and thinking about recent allegedly human-induced climate change, this dissertation ethnographically examines the lives of Greenlanders as well as Norse and Danes in the course of past historical natural climate cycles. My emphasis is on human endeavours to cultivate a future in the face of difficulties caused by climatic and environmental transformation. I recognize locals’ initiatives to carve out a future in the promotion of sheep farming and tree-planting in southern Greenland and in adaptation processes of northern Greenlandic hunters to the ever-shifting environment.

  • Renewable Energy Across the Arctic: Greenland Report
    Renewable energy across the Arctic: Greenland Report EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Greenland has been partly self-supplying with energy since 1993 by help of hydropower plants. The national energy production is increasing, but Greenland still depends on imported oil, primarily gas oil, diesel and petrol. Greenland has firm green ambitions – and potentials – in the energy sector. The Government of Greenland is committed to developing new hydropower plants in five communities and to invest in renewable energy for small, isolated settlements (Government of Greenland, coalition agreement 2016-2018). By pairing large-scale industry with renewable energy, Greenland can take a lead position in sustainable business. A central driver for the Government of Greenland’s commitment to renewable energy is an urge for a self-sustained economy and financial independence from subsidies from Denmark. When replacing imported fossil fuels with national energy production, the Government of Greenland supports the national economy while reducing CO2-emissions. Many communities in Greenland are small, and the grid comprises today 69 decentralized, stand-alone energy systems with no option for the distribution of renewable energy. However, two cities – Qaqortoq and Narsaq - are connected to the same hydro power plant in Qorlortorsuaq. Size matters in Greenland, as the country has an area greater than Mexico and with some communities very remote. The potential for hydropower is far from exhausted. New plants are already further analyzed, developed and in pipeline for five communities: Aasiaat, Qasigiannguit, Maniitsoq, Paamiut and Nanortalik. With more hydropower on the local grids, electric and hybrid cars can replace the use of gasoline and diesel. First- movers have already been out for some years, and more power stations are key to leverage.

  • Archaeological Investigations in Vatnahverfi, Greenland 2008
    Archaeological Investigations in Vatnahverfi, Greenland 2008 Season Preliminary Report Konrad Śmiarowski Northern Science &Education Center CUNY Graduate School and University Center 365 Fifth Avenue. New York, NY 10016 [email protected] - 1 - Konrad Smiarowski Greenland - Vatnahverfi 2008 Summary July and August 2008 was the fourth season of the collaborative Norse Settlement in the Vatnahverfi Region, South Greenland ca. AD 985 – 1450 Project. The Danish Middle Ages & Renaissance Department at The Danish National Museum and the Greenland National Museum and Archives (NKA) collaborated with the Northern Science and Education Center at City University of New York (NORSEC/CUNY) to complete an archaeological project in Southwestern Greenland, in the Qaqortoq Municipality. The project is part of a larger NABO (North Atlantic Biocultural Organization) and IPY (International Polar Year) program Human Ecodynamics in the North Atlantic, which works to coordinate international interdisciplinary projects in the Shetlands, Faroes, Iceland, and Greenland (see www.nabohome.org). The overall main objectives for this field season were to continue excavations of human burials (started in 2007) in the churchyard of a middle-sized Norse farm, Ø64 – Innoqquasaq, and take ancient DNA soil samples from multiple sites by the Danish team. The main objective of the CUNY crew was to test organic preservation, locate datable patches of cultural deposit, and recover a sample of ecofacts and artifacts from the midden layers at the same site. The field participants were Dr. Jette Arneborg (Project director), Dr. Martin Applet, Christian Koch Madsen, and Caroline Paulsen from The Danish National Museum, and Konrad Śmiarowski (CUNY team supervisor), Francis Feeley, Aaron Kendall from CUNY.
