S01:É01 - S01:E01 - The War Game
Has the Cold War returned? The battle for resources will intensify military activities in the north and the chances of confrontations occurring will increase as energy reserves elsewhere in the world become depleted. Will we succeed in resolving this forthcoming energy crisis without resorting to the use military force?
S01:É02 - S01:E02 - Exploitation
The earth’s most vulnerable ecosystem is under threat from dying fish, oil spills and global warming. As the ice melts many people are being tempted to engage in predatory activities in the Arctic, an area from which fish have previously disappeared. Is history repeating itself?
S01:É03 - S01:E03 - Into the Unknown

Should Arctic considerations take precedence over the living standards of the rest of the world?

Will the countries in the north comply with international regulations while a desperate hunt for energy resource is taking place? Will it be possible to share this area without any military conflicts arising – and will the exploitation of natural resources be able to occur peacefully?
