It is estimated some 10,000 to 15,000 icebergs are calved by Greenland's glaciers each year.	How do people live here? One way is living in spacehuts.   Take a quicktime walk around these geodesic domes.
Sled dogs are the major form of transportation here. Watch a video of sled dogs in action.	Who are the Inuit and what do they do?
