This book illuminates the impact of global warming on the Arctic, particularly its melting ice, which poses significant environmental threats not only to the region but also to the entire planet. If unchecked, this phenomenon will exacerbate global warming and contribute to rising sea levels, endangering island nations and coastal countries, with far-reaching environmental, social, economic, political, and military implications. While the melting Arctic presents challenges, it also creates opportunities, particularly regarding access to vast reserves of oil, gas, coal, and minerals, including rare earth elements. These resources are in high demand from both Arctic littoral states (Canada, Denmark/Greenland, Norway, Russia, and the USA) and Greater Arctic countries (Iceland, Finland, and Sweden), as well as major importers like China, India, Japan, and South Korea. The strategic importance of these resources necessitates careful division among regional countries. Additionally, the ice melt will facilitate the Northern Sea Route and Northwest Passage, enhancing connectivity between Europe, North America, and Northeast Asia. This increased accessibility is leading to a heightened military presence, primarily from the USA and Russia, raising concerns about a potential arms race. The book provides critical insights into these pressing issues, highlighting their implications for energy security and geopolitics in the Arctic.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book sheds light on how global warming has caused the ongoing environmental disaster in the Arctic, namely its melting. This development, if left unabated, will have a major negative environmental impact, not only on the Arctic itself, but on the entire planet, including the worsening of global warming and rising sea levels. The latter is a major threat to all island countries and all countries having coastlines with open seas with major environmental, social, economic, political and military/security implications. The Arctic melting is bringing about challenges while opening doors for certain opportunities. These are the accessibility of the region's large oil, gas and coal reserves and minerals, including rare earth elements. They are in demand both in the Arctic littoral states (Canada, Denmark/Greenland, Norway, Russia and USA) and the Greater Arctic countries (Iceland, Finland and Sweden) as well as in other parts of the world. In particular, major oil and gas importers (China, India, Japan and South Korea) are interested in the Arctic energy resources, the main non-regional countries with a capability to engage in the region. The obvious importance of the regional energy and mineral resources makes the division of the region among the regional countries crucial. The melting of the Arctic ice will also lead to the availability for at least a few months a year of a Northern Sea Route and a Northwest Passage connecting Europe to North America and the North-Eastern part of Asia. The importance of these northern routes and the Arctic mineral and energy resources is contributing to a growing military presence of mainly the USA and Russia in this region, which could lead to an arms race. This book offers invaluable insights on the issues that have grave implications for energy security and geopolitics in the arctic.
