Summary:	In August 2007, the world reacted with consternation as Russia planted a flag beneath the ice of the North Pole, symbolizing the Kremlin's claim to the Arctic with its vast mineral resources, and firing the starting gun on the world's last colonial scramble. With the map literally being redrawn by global warming, the ownership of the Arctic will be one of the defining issues of the next decade.
