Dear Deeply Readers,
Welcome to the archives of Arctic Deeply. While we paused regular publication of the site on September 15, 2017, and transitioned some of our coverage to Oceans Deeply, we are happy to serve as an ongoing public resource on the Arctic. We hope you’ll enjoy the reporting and analysis that was produced by our dedicated community of editors contributors.
We continue to produce events and special projects while we explore where the on-site journalism goes next. If you’d like to reach us with feedback or ideas for collaboration you can do so at [email protected].
The U.S. Department of the Interior has finalized the first ever Arctic-specific regulations for future exploratory drilling in U.S. Arctic waters. Environmental groups say it’s a step in the right direction, but critics warn that it will smother the region’s economy.
Have a story idea? Interested in adding your voice to our growing community?
