Climate change is causing disturbances in the chain of life in Antarctica, as weather patterns are becoming unpredictable · John Weller
Antarctica is one of four internationally recognized Global Commons which, normatively speaking, are perceived as being held in common, or in trust, for both the present and future generations, and endowed with the capacity to provide public goods. · NASA
