Jonathan Frænkel-Eidse's article focuses on the challenges faced by the Saami reindeer herders in Arctic Norway due to climate change and human development. The Saami have lived in the Arctic for generations, relying on fishing, hunting, and reindeer herding. However, their way of life is threatened by milder winters, expanding tree-lines, and human encroachment. The article highlights the Saami's deep connection to the land and their adaptive strategies, such as altering herd composition and using the geography for migration. Despite their resilience and historical adaptability, the Saami now struggle with the rapid pace of climate change and the loss of grazing land to human infrastructure. Conflicts arise as various groups and industries compete for space in one of the world's most sparsely populated regions. The Saami's plea for space to adapt is echoed by others, underscoring the broader issue of territorial conflict amidst environmental changes.

The article discusses the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA), a plan to mitigate aviation emissions through a carbon market. The scheme, which is to be negotiated at the UN ICAO meeting, has been criticized for focusing on offsets rather than actual reductions, and for its voluntary nature and lack of transparency. CORSIA aims to cap emissions at 2020 levels, with any excess to be offset. However, critics argue that the scheme is not comprehensive, as it exempts most developing nations and only covers a fraction of emissions. Concerns are also raised about the credibility of the offset emission units and the potential for market distortions if nations do not enforce the scheme rigorously. Despite these criticisms, the article suggests that having CORSIA is better than no action at all, as aviation emissions are expected to triple by 2050 without intervention.

The article discusses the broad themes of innovation and entrepreneurship, particularly focusing on how they contribute to shaping the future in the face of social and environmental challenges. It delves into various projects and initiatives, providing a platform for a deeper conversation about the essence of entrepreneurship and the impact of various stakeholders in driving change. The piece seems to emphasize the importance of thinking outside the box and the role of innovative thinking in addressing complex global issues.
