[lbo-talk] Defrosting the Arctic - Canada & Alaska Benign Neglect

[Nicholas Roberts]

its funny, I think that allowing the Arctic to melt, the permafrost to
defreeze, the mine the tar sands and shale, is the biggest example of
benign neglect in human real estate development history

the numbers on this years Arctic sea ice are some of the worst, its melting
fast and chances are its going to accelerate

so, for the useful idiots that the left love to hate like Sarah Palin or
Harper, this is a "good thing"... sea lanes, warmer weather, expanded
agriculture, greater population, the imminent coming of the Lord Jesus etc

at the American Geographical Union annual meeting last week in San
Francisco, James Hansen, remember him, told us, rather pleasantly and
qiuetly, that we are all going to die, or most of us anyway, and this
century
