Arctic Trade

There's so much news and analysis of both the economy and the elections that I'm not going to compete, but find for you, my faithful followers, other interesting stuff.
There's an article in the Atlantic Monthly talking about the new trade routes that are/will be opening up across the Arctic. It's being compared to the Suez or Panama Canal in terms of allowing ease of trade and transport.

Of course, this will also lead to enormous changes in the economies and ecologies of the entire Arctic.
