Donald Trump’s massive tariffs hit a pair of sub-Arctic volcanic islands, perhaps the world’s most desolate international trade location.

When Australia’s far-reaching, uninhabited outposts opened up with our taxes, the meme of their most well-known residents – King Penguin – exploded on social media.

The penguins in the McDonald’s Islands and McDonald’s Islands are not just the site of volcanoes, but also a range of “stunning” seabirds, elephant seals, moss, grass, grass and herbs, scientists say.

However, even for strong researchers, the 4,000km (2,500 miles) island southwest of the continent is terrifying.

They are not conducive to creating an industry’s trade industry, nor are they conducive to re-exporting goods to the United States in search of tariff loopholes.

Since 2016, it is well known that no one has taken the step forward and access is only allowed under the permission of the Australian government.

No port, no runway

“There is no infrastructure or commercial industry on the land,” said researcher Justine Shaw.

No ports, no runways.

To get there, scientists flew in helicopters on a research ship docked on land.

The only sign of a human occupation is the wood and metal residues of the abandoned research station in 1955, since the cold rain and wind were beaten.

“This is a real wilderness,” said Xiao.

But it is also “the most amazing place”, as it melts, there are huge cliffs and glaciers hanging, emitting thousands of king penguins, elephant seals and seabirds.

On the ground, there are 70 species of lichens, huge leafy plants and mats similar to lush green carpets.

“storm”

Marine ecologist Andrew Constable oversees a 40-day study on the island of expedition in 2004.

For several days, a violent storm stopped them from landing.

“Once, we had to point the boat to the sea nine days when the storm broke out, and there was nothing we could do,” Constable said. “The waves were huge: they were 10 meters (32 feet) high.”

But the officers said scientists were able to study its molten glaciers, seals and penguin behavior, and how human activities affect their pristine ecosystems.

He said one of the main purposes of the future research journey is to find out more of the icy terrain of Heard Island that turns green.

The researchers also need to probe and record marine debris and fishing gear washing on the shore, Constable said.

Human activities are very little, and it is one of the few places where “you see the world is moving.”
