Some Alaskans, like farmer Tim Meyers, are seeing warming temperatures as an opportunity. "I hate to say that but I guess I'm taking advantage of the fact that it is getting warmer," he says.
He says working the tundra — plowing swampy bogs full of silty soil — is tough. But he's adapted to farming in the sub-arctic, even making his own homemade, fermented fish fertilizer.
At the 15-acre organic farm, which has been operating for more than a decade, Meyers is growing crops like strawberries in greenhouses. But he says as temperatures warm due to climate change, it's easier to grow things like potatoes, cabbages and kale right in the ground, outside.
