From a purely Russian-centric point of view, is global warming even a bad thing?
Russia has huge stretches of land that are mostly useless for farming because of the cold. Not to mention the Arctic region, which they could traverse by ship if most of the ice would be molten.
- h0l0cube 3y agoI almost mentioned that. Russia are possibly worse than ‘hands off’ when it comes to encouraging global warming Edit: probably changed to possibly. Downvoted immediately because who knows?
- jemmyw 3y agoAs I understand it that land won't become arable.
- h0l0cube 3y agoWhat’s your understanding based on?
- jemmyw 3y agohttps://www.climatechangepost.com/russia/agriculture-and-horticulture/ https://www.climatechangepost.com/russia/agriculture-and-hor... Sounds complex. There are open questions as to whether those regions that open up for farming would have the soil to support it. And whether reduction in rainfall elsewhere in Russia would cancel out the gains. They have already benefited from current warming.
