The graphic is meant to be scary but the irony is the Northern Arctic areas where warming is mostly happening is also the area that will benefit economically from a warming climate along with the rest of Canada, Northern Europe, Russia (refer to IMF map in story link). What is frightening is Resolute Bay’s forecast for this week -30C, welcome to spring in the Arctic!
