I hear Icleand is pretty happy with the receding ice bergs, or snow level, whatever... Anyway, it's opening land that is rich in ore deposits. They country expects to reap a MAJOR economic windfall that is ALL READY happening.

Then there are the poor pacific islanders about to loose what little land they have left. It's kind of like the current economic situation here, not everyone is being badly affected, some of us are actually making money (guilty as charged) during this time. My experience has been making money is one thing, HOLDING ONTO it is equally tough.

What we are seeing is a redistribution of the wealth, for various reasons. Climate change folks are filling their pockets with "research money" for instance.
