The North Pole has become an island for the first time in human history as climate change has made it possible to circumnavigate the Arctic ice cap. (Normally it is connected to Canada and Asia meaning one would have to go around the contenents.)

Global warming has caused the Arctic icecap to retreat from neigbouring continents creating opening a gap
The historic development was revealed by satellite images taken last week showing that both the north-west and north-east passages have been opened by melting ice.
Prof Mark Serreze, a sea ice specialist at the National Snow and Ice Data Centre (NSIDC) in the US said the images suggested the Arctic may have entered a "death spiral" caused by global warming.
Shipping companies are already planning to exploit the first simultaneous opening of the routes since the beginning of the last Ice Age 125,000 years ago(emph mine). The Beluga Group in Germany says it will send the first ship through the north-east passage, around Russia, next year, cutting 4,000 miles off the voyage from Germany to Japan.
