Although the #OzoneLayer is on track towards recovery, a hole over #Antarctica appears every year, peaking during September and October, when most biota is protected by snow and sea ice. Unfortunately, as an indirect effect of #ClimateChange, the hole is lasting longer, until well into the summer, damaging biodiversity.

Some people in the govt say they're taking a "precautionary approach to "; but by opening the areas for exploration, they're simply ignoring scientific advise and neglecting the precautionary principle, which requires the exercise of caution when making decisions that may adversely affect nature, natural ecosystems and global biogeochemical cycles (Kibert, 2016).
