The dreaded evolution of shipping in the Arctic Ocean continues. First non-ice class container ship has received Arctic permit from Russians. Other shipping companies on #NSR include, Chinese NewNew Shipping Line, Safetrans Line & (disappointing) Maersk. highnorthnews.com/en/first-n…

Russia’s disposal of radioactive materials from its retired submarines, K-27 & K-159 - two subs sunk to 33m & 240m seabed carrying 1 million curies of radiation. Russia indicates plan to recover them. When? How? Threat to contamination of fish etc is real. thebarentsobserver.com/en/op…

#AI sort yourself out. I just want AI to conduct the ‘reject cookies’ activity on every web visit. That would be truly life changing.

0-0 HT Greenland v Turkmenistan = good form but less travel time & more fitness needed. During 6 months in Taasilaq (Greenland, 1989-90) I played with the locals on the small grit-surface pitch, dynamited out of the hillside, lit overhead by the moon & aurora. Onwards, Greenland.
🇬🇱 Greenland's first match against a senior men's national team since 2013 ends in a 5-0 loss to Turkmenistan in Antalya. After three flights lasting eight hours in total, Greenland battled valiantly and kept it goalless at the break but tiredness got to them in the second half.
