no because it is the only area left which me haven't exploited to death and it should be kept that way. We should not be mining resources (oil/coal) in the very place which suffers when we use it. it is ridiculous. We should instead be working hard to improve the efficiency of renewables.

Good answer but pros : It will give us the minerals and resources we are fast running out of and could hold answers or information undiscovered before, like new spieces found in the ice etc...

Cons : It is a very delicate ecosystem which is already being damaged by global warming and is the only place which is still untouched in the world, it gives us loads of info like our carbon emmissions by absorbing carbon dioxide and without it we'd be screwed, besides it is bloody freezing and would be really expensive to get there, it is also uninhabitable

Yes i think we should exploit Antarctica for supplying oil and minerals in case we ran out of it. However some countries think that we should not because Antarctica is the last unspoiled continent on the earth.

Today, all tourism to Antarctica is accommodated aboard the ships that they sail on to reach the continent. Since the Antarctic Treaty prohibits all commercial ventures, apparently the existing tourism accommodations are sufficient, with no need for development to accommodate tourism.

It's too cold to 'develop' anything in Antarctica -- humans do not have the technology to overwhelm the extreme cold required to exploit the Antarctic continent.

There is no 'development' on Antarctica, but there are research stations built by governments interested in supporting the scientific study of the health of planet Earth.

Should Antarctica be developed?

No. it should not be developed. It is one of the few places in the world that has not been developed and should stay that way.Another AnswerAntarctica is a harsh place. Development per se would be problematic, given that access to land is impossible for half the year -- the sea ice freezes, doubling the size of the continent; nothing grows there, everything must be imported -- it's 30 degrees F colder in Antarctica that it is in the polar regions of the Northern Hemisphere; development is simply an impractical idea.


Should Antarctica be a World Heritage Site?

Antarctica -- all land south of 60 degrees S -- is already protected by the Antarctic Treaty. The purpose of declaring any geography as a World Heritage Site is to protect its culture -- Antarctica has none; and its physical significance. There is no reason to add the burden of declaring it a World Heritage Site.
