Cold Environment (Sustainable Development)
- Challenges
- Economical
- Costly
- Case Study: Trans-Alaskan Pipeline:
cost more then 8 billion to raise
pipeline in order to not effect migration
of wildlife. Also they have specially built
it in the shape of ZIG-ZAG line in order
to reduce expansion and contraction
created by the heat of the oil. Therefore
preventing it sinking into the floor
- Housing
- Houses would be required to be
built in high grounds

- Transportation &
Navigation
- - Arctic Ocean’s northern sea route navigable for
around 100 days in the summer, but frozen for
the other 8 months in the year. - In summer,
routes must cross the waterlogged land and
roads can be impassable. -Rivers are used by
barges in summer, but navigation is difficult due
to flooding from snowmelt and large sandbanks
that develop. - In winter, the frozen rivers are
used as ice roads for trucks, yet there are risks
of going through the ice of hitting obstacles.
