Dispatch from Nuuk

Greetings from the Arctic Circle.

I am in Greenland working on a magazine piece that will come out once the Davos dust settles. It will provide more insight into what has been happening, but not just yet.

In the meantime, I thought I would provide readers with some unstructured observations.

I’m here because I wanted to see with my own eyes what is true and what is being manufactured as a “media reality”. This, on the back of an opportunity to meet with some Arctic Circle leaders.

I don’t have time to download everything I’ve learned right now, but I am going to give readers some quick pointers and relevant context that I feel are being missed more broadly. The aim is to help those with partial bits and pieces of the bigger picture to better ground themselves. A lot of you will quibble with my assessments. Others will simply consider them bonkers. But you’re just going to have to trust me that these counter-narratives and alternative perspectives are the only way to overcome the current firehose of noise and distraction.
