Archeology has shown that in the 1100's Viking (northman) villages were well into the arctic and they had livestock. by the 1400's these same villages were being abandoned and survived mostly on sea life. We only see these places today bearied in ice. Just a few degrees change in ocean temperature makes the difference as to whether the arctic is frozen or not. None of this has to do with human activity causing climate change, all records in modern history show glaciers inland on continents receding for centuries now. They are the last remnants of the ice age. Warm oceans and an open water arctic caused the ice age by moist air blanketing cold continents. The oceans cooled off, arctic froze over, ice age melted and now the oceans are equalizing. If the arctic finishes thawing out what should happen is more moisture and more storms bringing more water to traditionally drier locations. Lewis & Clark's Northwest Passage is going to be found after all. 40% shorter shipping means 40% less fuel burn, 40% less carbon emissions from giant ships (if you think that is a problem), more opportunities for trade at far less cost. The polar bear population will increase having an easier time on coastal land than living on ice, just ask a Kodiak bear what he/she thinks about that. (Some of my thoughts, I have subscribed and love the channel!)

@@nobody687 A recent study published in the journal Climate of the Past shows there are more Arctic glaciers and ice caps at present, and they extend farther and are thicker, than at several times since the end of the last ice age, contrary to what is commonly claimed. The research indicates the Arctic was warmer than at present between 8,000 and 4,000 years ago, with 80 percent to 100 percent of glaciers and ice caps (GICs) being smaller than today or absent entirely.

Larocca and Axford write, For each region and for the full Arctic, we summarize evidence for when GICs were smaller than today or absent altogether, indicating warmer-than-present summers, and evidence for when GICs regrew in lake catchments, indicating summer cooling. … [T]he full Arctic compilation suggests that the majority (50 % or more) of studied GICs were smaller than present or absent by ∼10 ka.

Melting ice is a negligible source of significant sea level rise. It's the physics of thermal expansion of water which will raise the water. Most people get this wrong because of availability bias. Ice is frozen water, ice melts into water BUT heat induced water expansion of existing liquid (sea) a FAR greater a source of increasing the cubic area taken up by water than the relatively paltry increase of added liquid which has historically remained frozen on or around either land or sea. Melting ice ain't it. Expanding water is it. Further confusing the issue is that global warming is the culprit creating both effects, and obscuring the real and direct culprit --the liquid expansion from heating. Now ya know.

From a business perspective, it makes total sense for shipping companies to charge less for the shorter route. The only scenario where a company could get away with it would be in a monopoly, which is not the case for the shipping industry. There are at least 7 or 8 large shipping companies like Maersk or MSC with fleets of over a million twenty-foot equivalents in capacity, and they can't afford to operate at ridiculously higher margins than the other companies out there because eventually one or more of them will decide to compete with lower prices. I agree that the reduction in the price they charge won't be the same as the reduction in operating costs for the new route, but it will almost surely be there.

Before you trust your own words, you should look into share holders for those 7-8 companies. They may have closer ties than you thought possible. This is exactly why, in America, prices exploded (not just because of a widespread illness or our military industrial complex shifting from Afghanistan to Ukraine. But because all these large publicly traded companies are majority owned by a few investment firms and they have one goal; profit.

You didn’t mention what is probably the most important factor. Nearshore permafrost, currently kept frozen by the near 0°C arctic ocean. When the ice melts, the greatly decreased albedo of the ocean will cause it to absorb a large amount of sunlight and warm up, and that will melt that permafrost, releasing vast amounts of methane. We can probably say goodbye to polar bears. Our fault. Might we also lose far north ocean species such as narwhal? The polar regions of the planet are major drivers of the global climate cycle, and removing the ice from the arctic ocean, completely changes, the nature of the Arctic impact on the climate. I’m surprised you didn’t question not only the impact that it would have on the climate if all that oil and gas were actually extracted and burned, but what is the reasoning behind the desire to go after that in the first place? I have to assume that the only possible reason is that the people doing it believe that they will be able to burn all that stuff, that, in fact, they don’t care about what happens to the planet and its climate

China hasn’t gotten back on track with production. They have enormous amounts of shipping container ships parked offshore. Most goods the US is receiving are being flown over, while nobody seems to know if or when Chinese goods will be back on track and shipped via oceans. Who knows? I’m hearing conflicting stories.

@@Israel_Two_Bit No, I don't think it will go away completely, but it will make shipping routes less strategically important as more and more countries move to produce finished goods domestically. The positive take away from all this is that it should also reduce pollution from both reduced traffic and shorter shipping routes.

@@ICDeadPeeps I like the idea of domestic production and deglobalization. I think that as underdeveloped countries grow and wages pick up, it'll eventually be better for companies to produce domestically in their home countries. But I'm no economist, so I'm just talking trash here, hehe. Thanks for the insight Face!

if we could build electric drone cargo containers which are wind (direct propulsion) + solar power ... we would not need to care about the shipping routes as much as sea freight would not have fuel costs and almost zero labor costs ... albeit freight times would be longer ... damnit, it's always a balancing act :D

In terms of global trade routes, although we are talking thousands of miles, considering the HUGE potential savings, would underground tunnels, with super high speed rail in a vacuum, be the best long term solution? If someone like Musk's boring company develops faster & fast boring technology, which Elon needs to develop anyway as he plans underground cities on the moon & Mars, then massive underground tunnels connecting every country in the world seems feasible, at increadible speeds, using zero pollution super high speed electric rail in a vacuum. Would you not agree?

Well, as the long term models have NEVER been correct, I would think the scientific community might think about studying something to find an answer, instead of starting with an answer and manipulating data to support the answer originally chosen. But I am old and remember when research wasn’t all politics. Sad that science no longer believes/follows the scientific method.

WTF??? I was a little perplexed by your last video on the Chinese meteorological/geology balloon (Your description, as an ice mapping craft, but is now a 'spy balloon'.), but this is so, so bad. I've loved your channel over the past two years, so please, please never venture into nationalistic geo-politics again. Don't want to embarrass you, but how would a sheet of ice, stop an 'all out attack by North Korea', with ICBMs? (Side note. DPRK will never, never, ever attack the USA, unless invaded, because it is led, not by some ideologue, but a trust-fund brat, who would know he was going to die, if he tried to nuke US-America. It's utterly laughable.) This painting China, as some malign threat will do nothing but pour trillions into the pockets of the military-industrial complex, to the detriment of all mankind. I'm no peace-nik, but how people can't see that they are being emotionally manipulated into fearing/hating China. How often have these fear mongers, told you what they believe China's endgame is? World domination? Chinese colonies across Europe and forcing the US to import opium? It sounds like the US is simply scared of not being the only bully with a big stick. NB For a western European, the US empire has been one of the best to live under, but empire it is. If I had to choose whether to be ruled by China, or USA, I'd pick the US. (assuming I got citizenship in each case. I wouldn't want the Chagos Islander treatment.. or Nicaraguan, or Honduran, or Iraqi... ummm. Still... better than China!)
