should it be developed ? Antarctica Aims-
Why is Antarctica important? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Task  – fill in the table using the role cards A A A F F limited F F scientists Tourist companies Antarctic explorers miners conservationists WWF supporters Greenpeace What they think For/ against developing
Antarctica-should we develop? What are the arguments for and against developing Antarctica?
World oil supplies are running out. Antarctica could keep cars running and bring down petrol prices.  Do you want to carry on driving your car?  Then let us find oil! We will abide by strict agreements not to pollute the environment Do you want to solve food shortages? Then let us fish! Antarctic waters are the richest on earth. Lessons have been learned since whales were nearly wiped out. Catches will be limited to make sure fishing is sustainable.  Arguments for development
Tourists visit in summer - mid-Nov - early March, when the Antarctic peninsular gets just above freezing. There is less ice and more visible wildlife. Cruise ship voyages - 10 days/weeks. Most (except largest ships, 500+ passengers) go ashore.  ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Costs Tourism is good! Tourism does good, not harm. Only 100 are allowed at a time, for 1½ hours! More people see Antarctica’s unspoiled beauty and want to preserve it. No rubbish is left. Wouldn’t  you  like to go?
[object Object],Very few scientists live there permanently.  In the winter they go back home. Scientists Global warming Antarctic ice goes back 650,000 years. Drilling tells us about climate history so we can understand global warming. We need to see if ice is melting to predict sea level rises.  Ozone layer Antarctic scientists found the hole in the ozone layer.  Antarctica is a giant fridge. Under the ice are prehistoric lakes & fossils, frozen in time. We haven’t begun to learn what they could teach us about the earth’s history.
Antarctica should be left as it is ‘the world’s last wilderness

Adelie penguin
Humans disturb our home, they affect our breeding and they bring strange things and watch us!!!! Humans are taking my fish food from the ocean, what if they take it all?
for developing....
There may be oil supplies under the Ice, we are short of oil so why not use it? Oil prices are rising, if there is oil there we should use it to lower the price There could be other minerals under the ice that would be useful to us!
This is our planet we have the right to go wherever we want on it Tourism can make money to invest in Earth
