Preventing an Arctic cold war

This op-ed does a credible job in detailing what the big problem is (climate change) and the stakes (oil and gas principally) as eight-of-so nations start quibbling over who gets what. I foresee massive overfishing in the Arctic, among other faults. In any case, the cold north that greeted the "thing" portrayed by actor James Arness in "The Thing from Another World" is nearly gone and human actions are to blame.
