Global warming's 'winners'

With climate change bringing the heat, take a look at the next tourist hot spots 0

When we saw this list of so-called "Global Warming's Winners" on ForbesTraveler.com, at first we thought, "Seriously?" And then we thought, "I sure could go for a cookie!" But after a quick snack, we reconsidered their hot-or-not travel judgments on places that stand to gain or lose from climate change, and made a few assessments of our own.

Our conclusion? Look on the bright side. Because, hey, even if the permafrost is thawing, that doesn't mean you can't go on a luxe Arctic cruise to see it.

Check out some of these places -- along with a healthy dash of Grist humor -- in this slideshow.

The science and multimedia-loving Ashley Braun writes, tweets, and Facebooks for Grist. And sometimes she does this for herself. You should follow her on Twitter, but not in real life. That’s called “stalking,” you creepster.
