Greenland, Antarctica new lands, upheavals

Analysis of global warming, global economies and maritime routes (other articles the consequences in my blog on France televisions)

A change in economic and commercial exchanges by sea. Indeed the ice melting the sea ice will have completely disappeared which will have consequences that countries like Russia, Canada (Quebec), the United States, the countries of the North of Europe, China and Japan will have more than trade and economics directly between them at present (but the post-oil adaptation of these countries also comes into play). Northern shipping routes will change.
The climate also becoming more temperate countries of northern Europe, Russia and Canada will become more inhabited places and easier to live (climate less harsh). There will also be a change of vegetation at the level of these countries.
The northern islands of Canada, Russia and Greenland will also become more reliable and livable.
At the level of Western Europe the climate also depends on the Gulf Stream because its stop or its continuity will have consequences but perhaps less than what we believe because the global warming of the oceans as climatic and also global. So even if this current stops, Western Europe will experience (and begin to know) a change of climate towards more heat and more severe climatic precipitations.
At the levels of countries near the South Pole, such as Argentina, Chile, Australia ect. Economic and trade exchanges will change as well as for southern South America, which will become lenient in terms of climate. The roads and shipping lanes of the North and South of the planet will change.
And generally globally and in a very negative way, climate warming that will also generate uninhabitable land and rising water so an invasion by the sea of ​​some low coasts and disappearances or the restriction of habitable areas along the coast of some islands (as well as the disappearance of other islands too low, which is already happening).
The question is at the level of the Antarctic which is a terrestrial continent (and not like the North Pole which consists of ice and sea ice). Should we leave it as a virgin continent and scientific research? Questions that have already been asked and accepted to countries with scientific bases, Antarctica having become after world agreement a neutral land and exclusively reserved for scientific research.
But at the time without the new deal of global warming.
So with the evolution of the climate towards the warming one could ask the question if this continent could not be colonized and become a more welcoming and habitable earth, to eventually accommodate the millions of climatic refugees.
What will be the status of this new continent that will be the Antarctic? A new independent country once colonized? The countries that currently own parts of this land will they want to leave them to these new inhabitants?
In short the question will have to ask one day or another at the level of this virgin land that is Antarctic ...
The same question will arise in Greenland (even more easily colonized than Antarctic) which is a huge island currently belonging to Denmark, and which is not a neutral land that is devoted to scientific research ...
To return to changes at global levels, the end of oil (but I say in another article on my "France television") and the difficult adaptation of techniques to replace it, will lead to more continental economic systems and thereby a mitigating effect of economic globalization.
So the global warming created by the polluting activity of our current civilizations changes and will change the face of the world as well as the end of the oil.
Current and future generations will therefore have enormous challenges and problems to overcome. Will they do it in a peaceful way or will they kill each other?
In any case, the problems are solved more easily and calmly if they are taken in time, which seems not to be the primary concern of our leaders today. But what is certain is that the world will change and it is not a step backwards or forwards, as the West, the Asian countries and others are currently doing (as the saying goes: " after me the flood ") that the problems will be solved.

Global warming and climate change has begun and we will have to do without oil and these problems go beyond problems between religions, politics, societies and countries. We must rethink our energies, our ways of producing, living, consuming, trading, our economy, our society.

..... in an 1er time, but if we look at Friday's Thalassa 9 Mars, it could become a big ice cube and push the Nordics (Finland, Norway, Sweden ..) to emigrate to the South.

Hello Demo

the approach is interesting, and reminds us that men live on a living planet,

which implies necessarily having to adapt quickly in case of disaster for a natural reason or caused by the man.

It is true that our societies seem frozen in their certainties, that the borders will not move, that the cities will remain in their place

But we are only nomads on moving continents, floating on a sea of ​​molten matter (lava), do not forget it.

Obsessed by the daily constraints that we have created for ourselves, we live blindly in a world we know very little about.

The United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) has launched the Plant for the Planet initiative: the Billion Tree Campaign. Around the world, individuals and organizations from diverse backgrounds such as civil society, the private sector or the state are encouraged to register their commitment to plant trees on this site. The goal is to plant at least a billion trees around the world in 2007.

For the moment, the campaign that is working really well is "Plant the planet!". : Mrgreen:

At the South Pole, the debacle is accelerating

13th June 2018

In twenty-five years, Antarctica has lost nearly 3000 billion tons of ice, increasing 7,6 millimeters the rise in sea level. In a special issue, the magazine "Nature" projects a dark future for the icy continent.

If the Arctic has unequivocal signs of global warming, scientists struggle to interpret what is happening in Antarctica. This very isolated region contains the largest fresh water reserve on the planet, enough to hoist the sea level by 58 meters! But the extreme variability of its climate masks long-term trends, including the effects of warming, documented in a series of new studies published by Nature.

"The two poles have a very different geography," explains Valérie Masson-Delmotte of the Saclay Climate and Environmental Science Laboratory in France, who co-chairs the working group on the physical bases of climate change in the IPCC. the UN expert group. In the North, it is an ocean surrounded by continental land, while in the South, it is a giant continent surrounded by an ocean. That's why the effects of global warming are very different. "
