Red Oktober

I think we can safely say that the climate change is well underway. It's late October and, for the first time since records began, the waters of the Laptev Sea in the Siberian Arctic, are still free of ice ( https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/oct/22/alarm-as-arctic-sea-ice-not-yet-freezing-at-latest-date-on-record). The fear is that this delay will have 'knock on' effects on the rest of the Arctic. So, more hydrochemical extraction and more melting (along with less solar energy reflected back into space).
