Trump Shows Interest in Buying Greenland
US President Donald Trump earlier confirmed he was keen ( ) to buy Greenland, an autonomous ( ) Danish territory rich in natural resources and of increasing geopolitical relevance as the Arctic ice sheet ( ) melts.
Trump’s bid ( ) for Greenland was not a first for the US. In 1867, the State Department expressed interest in the island, and in 1946 former US president Harry Truman offered US$100 million in gold, or parts of Alaska, in exchange for Greenland.
But last week Denmark, a NATO ally ( ), swiftly retorted ( ) that the island, located between the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, is not for sale, prompting ( ) Trump to cancel a planned state visit.
The name “Greenland” is misleading as the 2 million square km island, the world’s largest island that is not a continent ( ), has three quarters bordering ( ) the Arctic Ocean and is 85 percent covered in ice. Greenland was a Danish colony ( ) until 1953, when it became part of the Danish realm ( ). In 1979, it gained “autonomous territory” status. Today, the island’s economy depends heavily on subsidies ( ) from Copenhagen.
Greenland has been essential to US defense since World War II, when it was a base for monitoring ( ) Nazi ships and submarines passing through the Arctic on their way to the north Atlantic. In 1943, the US Air Force built its farthest-north air base at Thule, crucial during the Cold War as a first line of monitoring against a potential Russian attack.
As the polar ice sheet melts, opening up potentially major shipping routes, other global powers have moved in.
Russia has become more active, and, while it has no geographical claim to the region, China has also begun to show interest in the region. China’s massive commercial shipping industry would benefit from the new polar routes.
This massive territory is also on the front line of melting Arctic ice in a region that is warming twice as fast as the rest of the planet.
According to the World Meteorological Organization, Greenland’s ocean levels are rising by about 3.3mm per year.
If Greenland’s ice sheet were to disappear completely, it would raise ( ) the ocean level by 7m.
Nonetheless, Greenland’s melting ice has a silver lining ( ). Greenland’s subsoil ( ) is rich in gold, rubies and uranium, as well as iron, aluminium, nickel, platinum, tungsten, titanium, and copper, which could attract foreign investment.
Although Trump failed to buy Greenland, the US government is opening a consulate ( ) in Nuuk, the capital of Greenland, next year; the last time the US had a consulate in Greenland was from 1940 to 1953.
相中豐富天然資源 川普打算買格陵蘭
美國總統唐納.川普明白表示他亟欲買下格陵蘭。該島為丹麥的自治區,自然資源豐富;隨著北極冰蓋逐漸融化,格陵蘭在地緣政治上也愈顯重要。
川普此次開口,並非美國第一次想買下格陵蘭。一八六七年,美國國務院便表達了對該島的興趣;一九四六年,美國前總統哈利.杜魯門為取得格陵蘭島,出價等值一億美元的黃金,也提出以阿拉斯加的部分地區為交換。
但在上週,美國在北大西洋公約組織的盟國丹麥旋即反駁川普說,格陵蘭這座位於北大西洋和北極海之間的島嶼是非賣品,這讓川普憤而取消原訂訪問丹麥的計畫。
「Greenland」(「格陵蘭」,字面意義為「綠色的土地」)這個名稱很容易讓人誤解,因為它是個面積有兩百萬平方公里的島嶼,也是世界上最大的非大陸島嶼,有四分之三的海岸線臨北極海、百分之八十五的面積覆蓋著冰。格陵蘭在一九五三年之前是丹麥的殖民地,之後才成為丹麥領土。一九七九年,格陵蘭取得「自治區」的地位。現今,該島的經濟極度仰賴哥本哈根的補助。
自第二次世界大戰以來,格陵蘭一直是美國國防不可或缺的一環。它是二戰時期美國在北極的基地,以監視納粹借道北極、駛向北大西洋的船隻和潛艇。一九四三年,美國在格陵蘭的圖勒建立了美國空軍最北的基地,在第一線監測俄羅斯可能發動的攻擊,這在冷戰時期至關重要。
隨著極地冰蓋融化,有潛力成為主要航運路線的水路也開闢出來,全球其他強權紛紛湧入。
俄羅斯變得更加積極,新崛起的中國也開始對北極地區表示興趣,雖然中國對該地區並無主張領土。新的北極航線將會讓中國龐大的航運業受益。
北極的暖化速度是地球其他地方的兩倍,冰凍的北極正逐漸融化。而格陵蘭這片巨大的土地,正位於北極的最前線。
世界氣象組織的報告指出,格陵蘭的海平面每年持續上升約三點三公釐。
如果格陵蘭的冰蓋完全融化,將會使海平面升高七公尺。
儘管如此,格陵蘭冰層的融化還是有那麼一點好處。格陵蘭的底土富含金、紅寶石和鈾,以及鐵、鋁、鎳、鉑、鎢、鈦和銅,這些都可以吸引外國投資。
雖然川普購買格陵蘭未果,但美國政府計畫明年在格陵蘭首府努克設立領事館;上次美國在格陵蘭設有領事館,是在一九四○年至一九五三年之間。

arctic territory 在 BikepackingTaiwan 陪你玩台灣 - 體驗單車露營的美好 Facebook 的精選貼文
這是一位名為Ben Page的探險家自拍自編的冒險紀錄片,呈現在極地Bikepacking的心路歷程。在這麼冷的地方騎車,面對冰天雪地看不出自己身在何處也遇不到人的孤獨心境,需要強大的心臟與適應能力。
小弟我自己多數時候也都是自己去騎車,一來自己騎車方便想騎就騎想走就走,二來不用跟別人喬時間,三來不用顧慮別人感受也不會麻煩麻煩到其他人,這也是為什麼我很少找人一起騎車的原因。
如果有機會,我也會規畫騎一個比較長時間的旅行,可能是兩個禮拜到一個月,花時間體驗當地、享受生活,悠遊人生。
