North Pole may be ice-free this summer
It seems unthinkable, but for the first time in human history, ice is on course to disappear entirely from the North Pole this year.

If it happens, it raises the prospect of the Arctic nations being able to exploit the valuable oil and mineral deposits below these a bed which have until now been impossible to extract because of the thick sea ice above.
March on, Christian soldier!
When oh when will this madness end?
