The_Global_Warmer Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 As this progresses those lanes will be open well into November as the depth of the warm water expands and prevents refereeze over the passage until later. Both the NE and NW passages were open for record lengths this season. If 2012 is Warner and less cloudy than 201/1 it will surely mark the new era of arctic sea shipping. Cutting trips in half is surely ridiculously more profitable. Not good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
