A feature to the impact of global warming on polar ice caps, opening new shipping routes to connect the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and affecting the role and relevance of seafarers.
I just had to make another guess and that is when they fall flat on the lying face they will move the goalposts once again. This game is very old.
They will save on shipping costs that they will not pass on to the end consumer.
Governments that will control these new shipping routes will have new revenue streams Governments and people will pay higher prices to cover the cost of damage to buildings and infrastructure from climate change.
Add to this the increased cost associated with building cooling and heating, which will increase healthcare costs.
Short-sighted governments pushing to harm the environment in the Arctic for tiny gains will make everyone pay higher prices...
The net result will be global losses. You cannot deal with the environmental delicate balance and get rid of it.
It seems that all that matters is money, so let's pump more CO2 directly into the most sensitive areas STAT! Open those shipping ways!
