This icebreaker is going to have to travel at least 10,000 miles to help out on what these warmist numbskulls started. A huge carbon footprint!!!

Now to be fair it seems this ships mission this season was to head to Antarctica anyways to help resupply our (US) base/research station there

“The Polar Star, the U.S. Coast Guard’s only active heavy polar ice breaker, left its homeport in early December on one of its primary missions, Operation Deep Freeze. The ship’s mission is to break a channel through the sea ice of McMurdo Sound to resupply and refuel the U.S. Antarctic Program’s McMurdo Station on Ross Island.”

Polar Star was most recently in Sydney, Australia according to another article. They will take six or seven days to get to the area of the problem. It isn’t a 10,000 mile trip!
