Global Warming good news:

German ships successfully make “Arctic Passage”

The Northern Sea Route trims 4,000 nautical miles off the usual 11,000-mile journey via the Suez Canal, which Beluga has said would yield substantial savings in fuel costs and reductions in CO2 emissions.

Of course, if they reduce CO2 emissions it might ice over again.

Just think how much less drama there would be in the world if the Suez canal wasn’t needed.
