“Fighting” climate change is battling a phantom.
Instead of “fighting”, EMBRACE the change. Bananas in Labrador sounds like a good idea and year-round transpolar sea traffic would shorten a LOT of shipping lanes. Russia would no longer have to rely on the good graces of Turkey or the countries surrounding the Baltic Sea for access to open ocean, and the passes over the Swiss Alps would be open year around.
It may even be practical, in view of the rising sea levels, to develop underwater dwellings in what would become shallow coastal waters, as more and more of the development is below ambient sea level. Thus old and established waterfront properties are re-purposed to a new and more environmentally friendly habitat for humanity. Fish swimming by would substitute for birds singing in the trees.
These gloom-and-doom people have such limited imaginations.
Oh, yes, the US SHOULD acquire Greenland. It would make a great grain-growing region.
The imagination and intellect focused on the POSSIBILITIES is what we need MORE of.
Great post!
