Silver Lining
I stumbled upon this article concerning global warming from the April 2007 edition of The Atlantic Monthly in one of my classes. The article is by Gregg Easterbrook and analyzes what benefits there will be and who will enjoy them in a warming world. Given, he does state that there will be negatives to a warming climate but, since the negatives are all that most people hear about, it is interesting to read that there are some benefits as well. His article is definitely applicable when he talks about nations wanting to lay claim to the arctic considering the recent claims Russia, Denmark, Canada, and others have had on the north pole.
