    The vid doesn't explain what I think is the most interesting aspect of South Georgia and that's the climate. Due to the Foehn wind effect for such a southern latitude there's a comparatively balmy eastern side of the island. Also, I'm very unimpressed with the whaling rubbish. Rather than Britain cleaning up all the damn mess why not just call it a Historic Site and label all the detritus artifacts even though none of it will ever have a penny spent on it to 'preserve' it. When push comes to shove if there's money in allowing tourism to further degrade the area the British government will surely allow that but you can guarantee into perpetuity now it's a "Historic Site" that gets them off ever having to do anything about this industrial disgrace. It's not a Historic Site because if it was funds would be spent on maintaining the artifacts. Who's visits it? Five people a year? What a joke, what a lie. Hypothetically, if they were going to do something to make it a true historical site, clean it up, leave a few items that represent the past and maintain them so they continue to represent the past. Again, it's not an historic site it's an abandoned industrial site in a previously pristine wilderness. Talk about lipstick on a pig. It's no different to cashed up westerners, in particular dedicated rock climbers, climbing high mountains and leaving rubbish the entire way to the summit. You could call all those oxygen cylinders and synthetic rope fragments, plastic bags and ripped tents a Historic Site too I suppose. These same mountaineers do training climbs with battery drills permanently bolting natural rock walls as part of their climbing kit. This man vs nature arrogance is as present today as it ever was. Just politely speak to them and see the aggression they spew towards you when you dare question what they see as their entitlement in case you were interested in my contention. Call me cynical.

    The Polynesians were likely the forefathers of Maori who arrived in New Zealand circa 800yrs ago. essentially a Neolithic race who ravaged the ecology as they migrated from island to island. Easter island was depleted and when Maori arrived to NZ they encountered an earlier race Moriori whom they enslaved whilst eating the largest bird to ever exist the Moa to extinction.
