Isn't the point that global warming could make a lot more of the country liveable? Same with Russia, climate change could potentially turn frozen tundra into usable land.
Not really unfortunately. It will be warm enough to live there more comfortably, but the land isn't very usable compared to where people live now. Most of the tundra has very thin rocky soil and it is waterlogged and swampy. Just because it is warmer there doesn't mean the actual ground becomes like the soil farther south
Isn’t de-thawed permafrost really good for growing food tho? Besides the y’know possible disease and shit.
We don't know what's trapped inside the permafrost, as it thaws we might unleash some sort of super bacteria or even worse, the Reagan/Thatcher blood amalgam trapped beneath trapped below
The horrors of our cyberpunk future, where the Reagan flu or Thatcher cough take you…
