We are approaching a point where feedback loops (such as the release of methane from melting permafrost) will trigger catastrophic climate change and immense human suffering. Locally, evidence of climate change can be seen in changing precipitation patterns, warming winters, increased wildfire risks, the redirection of water from the Slims River, and many other examples. While the contribution of the Yukon and Haines Junction to global carbon dioxide levels is minor, the historic and current per capita contribution of Canada and the Canadian North is undeniably significant. We believe that it is our responsibility to future generations and indeed our moral responsibility to do what we can as a community to mitigate our contribution to climate change. As individuals, we acknowledge that we have many responsibilities such as decreasing our energy consumption, changing driving habits, reducing travel and increasing the efficiency of our homes.

This period witnessed a devolution of power from the federal government to the Yukon government that resulted in a shift of the day-to-day political tensions and disputes in Yukon moving from a federal-territorial orientation to a territorial-local one. Two key themes are consistently present in Yukon’s political and educational history.
