Is there any thing there but Ice and Snow? The Arctic: cold, unforgiving, barren wasteland full of mosquitoes… Why do we need to learn more about that place?
The Arctic region is largely ignored by the citizens of southern and temperate regions and perceived as a wasteland. But in fact, this area is actually home to many incredible species of animals, and valuable natural resources. Due to the fragility of the area it is difficult to resolve how to best develop and protect the region at the same time.
Global climate change, industrial development, pollution, questionable oceanic & atmospheric activities, environmental degradation, habitat loss & big money politics are alive & well at the top of the world. Post news, give kudos, expose misinformation, & suggest peaceful solutions. There are many topics of concern, so I've started a few discussion threads with particular headings in order to make popular discussions easier to track.
Please FEEL FREE to begin additional topics. Everyone is also welcome to speculate, make anecdotal observations, question, ponder, or share artistic and philosophical expressions.
Read the C2 Code of Conduct, as the main rule is the golden one.
