    Climate change may provoke conflict between the European Union and Russia as Arctic ice melts, easing access to fossil-fuel deposits and opening new sea routes, the 27-nation bloc's top two foreign policy officials said.

    This could become a worldwide disruption! Scary to just think about, much less actually happening!

      And as usual, we are going to have a lot of people who will say that's not true, that's fake, that all the scientists are mad, and that climate doesn't change....until the worse happen....and this article could be the worse!

      Thanks Engineer!
