365 Days of Climate Awareness 264 – The Panama Canal and Climate Change
The Panama Canal, which connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans via the Isthmus of Panama, is the conduit to an estimated 3% of world trade (by comparison, 12% runs through the Suez), cutting the trip around South America by weeks.
