Global Warming Shortcut
September 13th 2009 12:49
Many know my opinion about global warming and I still stand behind it. Regardless what side of the argument one presents, global warming may have some advantages that are useful to many people. Lets look at the Arctic melting that is blamed on global warming.
The Arctic Ocean's ice cap melting may lead to shortcuts. It seems that this would be an advantage for trade and travel.
From the article:
A journey from South Korea to the Netherlands, for example, is about 11,000 nautical miles (12,658 miles). By going northward and using the Northeast Passage, approximately 3,000 nautical miles (3,452 miles) and 10 days can be shaved off.
