About Longyearbyen
Longyearbyen is the name of the city in the north of the Earth is still in the region of Norway.
Longyearbyen is the capital in the Polar Archipelago of Svalbard and the largest settlement in Svalbard.
Polar Archipelago of Svalbard itself is one of the islands in the north of mainland Europe and is located in
the Arctic Ocean. This area has a temperature that is cold, where there are over 2,300 residents of
longyearbyen. In 2014 in this area the beginning of the disaster until February 2019.

Since 2014, these changing weather conditions have led to avalanches on the slopes above the
town – something residents have not seen before. Researchers have long predicted that temperature
increases and changing weather conditions due to climate change would first occur in the Arctic and then
spread south. During the dark winters, many Longyearbyen residents are afraid to stay in their homes,
said property manager at Statsbygg, who lives in Longyearbyen. In December 2015, an avalanche killed
two people and destroyed 11 houses at the base of Sukkertoppen (Sugar Top Mountain). In February
2017, another avalanche wiped away six more housing units. Ground zero
During the dark winters, many Longyearbyen residents are afraid to stay in their homes, said
Bente Næverdal, property manager at Statsbygg, the Norwegian State Building Agency, who lives in
Longyearbyen.

They have good reason to be fearful. In December 2015, an avalanche killed two people and
destroyed 11 houses at the base of Sukkertoppen (Sugar Top Mountain). In February 2017, another
avalanche wiped away six more housing units. Since 2018, the Norwegian government has invested
around 500 million Norwegian kroner (more than £41 million) on new housing and protective measures
such as avalanche barriers. With 60 new homes already built around 500m north-east of town in a safer
area that’s not beneath a mountain slope, a second phase of the project will see the demolition of another
142 homes in what government officials describe as “hazardous areas”. n the winter, when the changes
are more marked, it has increased by 7C, according to a February 2019 report by the Norwegian
Environment Agency. Almost none of the 30,000 tourists that travel to Longyearbyen annually will know
that the town is under threat of unpredictable avalanches that threaten life and property, said Næverdal.
According to tourists there are longyearbyan areas feel like a dream destination. Much can be see and do
one you actually get out on the water. Every day conditions start differently, such as temperature, lights
and wildlife that can be seen. We have also done some excellent Hiking, also climbed some of the
mountains here. We will probably know if we ask you a few questions and some guidelines as to, how to
live here? They tell you about how difficult it actually is to find a place to live. It is when you find out
about the avalanche and how it affects the city. The whole planning of the city basically had to be
repaired and the city had to be rebuilt. at first only a few houses headed for the valley but due to
avalanches they now had to move. Some new houses from the valley and around the corner. Close to
Nybyen but very much standing on its own is Huset. The big old white house has quite the history. Peter,
the front-of-house manager, talked me through some of it in the video. Today it's a fine dining restaurant,
bistro, bar, and nightclub. The tasting menu is the best way to enjoy the dish of the Arctic. they
sometimes heard the sound of deer hanging around, so make them feel accustomed to it
