Sila – A play about Climate Change in the Arctic

Summary/Abstract: Climate change has become one of the most urgent challenges today and the Arctic is one of thefirst places that is visibly affected. The Inuit have lived there for thousands of years, but can their culture survive in a dramatically changing environment? Sila is a play by Chantal Bilodeau that tells the stories of people who are living there and how they deal with the changing face of the north. As an issue play Sila can be a rewarding text to study in the classroom to elucidate the effects of climate change and discuss divergent views and experiences on how to take action.
