Who owns the Arctic?

Recently, i read an article in Time magazine about "Who Owns the Arctic?"

The shrinking of Arctic seems not to be a major concern for all the powerful and surrounding countries. Despite, the surrounding countries (US, Canada, Russia, Denmark, Norway) are fighting on who suppose to own it rather than saving it. What they are eying are the limitless energy resource and possibly of oil resource.

Ironically, the land is being tortured like a ball in the football matched. I am disgusted of what the political leaders opinionated and claimed on Arctic.

It might be correct in a political view of what they had done, still the ecosystem in the Arctic is suffering. The melting ice is part of the global warming where we had caused directly or indirectly.

Even though i'm not an environmentalist or consider as activist in the green movement, i still have my concern on the shrinking of Arctic and how it would affected us. Especially to the ice ecosystem - the eskimos (what should they do and how will they survive) and its animals which are extinct.

I do feel bad for them and feel bad of what we had done. So, i've started to let myself be more environmental and green eco friendly.

Instead of declaring the pieces of land, i think those countries should collaborate with each other in order to save or at least decrease the speed of the melting ice.

Sometimes we as a human being are just nasty and too selfish. What a disappointment and shameless act of us.
