Russia and Canada will gain more human habitable land from global warming.


So why did you say 'No, you can't beat Ukraine'?

> The depth of black soil in other places is incomparable with Ukraine's.

How do you know it's incomparable?

That statement would still hold for other countries with layer thicknesses in the 1m to 1.5m range. Which seems entirely comparable considering the area covered is multiple times greater.
