Why is Antarctica forbidden?

Because we must protect the environment.

More and more tourists go to Antarctica, which will endanger the fragile local environment. Environmental protection is the top priority of Antarctic tourism. The Antarctic ecosystem is extremely fragile. Even an exotic seed may bring subversive damage to the Antarctic and threaten the species pattern. Developing safe and environmentally responsible Antarctic tourism has become the knowledge of human development.

Antarctic tourism has been managed within the framework of the Antarctic Treaty, and has become a key topic in the Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting. In addition, according to the environmental protection requirements of the Antarctic treaty system, the International Association of Antarctic Travel Agents has formulated and implemented environmental protection standards for Antarctic tourism, and regularly provided Antarctic tourism reports to Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meetings.

/kloc-At the beginning of the 9th century, the Antarctic continent was discovered. However, due to the cold climate in Antarctica, there are no permanent residents and no immigrants from other places, so there are no settlers and no government or country has been established.

At the beginning of the 20th century, Britain, France, Germany, Australia, New Zealand and other countries made territorial claims to the Antarctic continent, and then the United States, Chile, Argentina and other countries also made territorial claims to the Antarctic continent.

In the case of unsuccessful negotiations, representatives of Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Chile, France, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, South Africa, Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union signed the Antarctic Treaty in Washington on February 1.

According to the Treaty, Antarctica is only used for peaceful purposes, ensuring the freedom of scientific research in Antarctica, promoting international cooperation in scientific research, prohibiting all activities of a military nature, nuclear explosions and the disposal of radioactive materials in Antarctica, freezing claims of territorial ownership and promoting international cooperation in science.
