Antarctica is a beautiful and exotic place. If Earth warming trends continue, perhaps Antarctica will become more hospitable and open up to residential and commercial development.

It would be a terrible thing globally, the situation especially near the equator would be far worse (flooding, storms, heat waves). But at the same time - it's interesting to think the people of the future might have green grass lawns that look out towards unnamed mountains never seen before. A whole new ecosystem and a torrent of discoveries might be found within this landscape.
