Fight for the Artic Treasures

Many countries are beginning the fight for Artic Treasures some studies says that it has a ¼ of Gas Reserves and nearly 40,000 millions of Oil, the best is that there is a route to shorten the distance between London and Tokio from 23,000 km to 16,000 km.

At September 2005 the frozen region was 5.3 millons of km2 of 14 millions of km2 at this rate by 2015 there would be no more ice in the Zone. Look at the map left size was the artic on 1978 and right is Artic on 2005.

UN doesn’t have any method for country reclamation for this zone but there is a legislation that says that State Zone is 370 km from his coast but if the show that there is a natural continental plataform connected to the main land it would reclaim the zone that’s why now the governments are trazing new maps to reclaim it before 2009 when the time expires.

Another example of how Global warming is changing our World!!!

here I put again the Picture of Crazy Cowboy BUSH when ppl ask him: Sir where is the Artic????
