Nunavut is the  newest Canadian territory that was established on April 1 1999 when it separated from the Northwest Territories (NWT)

Comprising of the central and eastern parts of the former NWT, the  creation of Nunavut was the outcome of the largest aboriginal land claims agreement between the Canadian government and the native Inuit people. Most of Nunavut land is covered by snow for  more than half the year. The land is primarily tundra.

Some of the challenges faced by Nunavut  today are lack of job opportunities, isolation, acute housing shortage, social problems and high cost of living including sky-high food prices. The high cost of food has greatly exacerbated   widespread hunger that has dogged the young nation almost since inception.  Food insecurity one of the most pressing challenge facing Nunavut today.

How does climate effect and shape ecosystem? be specific and account for the diversity of life
Strike441 [17]
“Climatic conditions help to shape various ecosystems and habitats around the globe. A particular climate can be a boon to one species and a devastation to another. As the climate changes, species and ecosystems respond by adapting, migrating, or reducing their population. Gradual shifts in the climate are easier to adapt to than abrupt swings, and this is certainly true for humans as well as other species. Studies of Earth's climatic history indicate that climates have changed in the past and resulted in dramatic shifts in ecosystems. The most recent geological period the Holocene (about last 10,000 years), however, has been unusually stable.”
