Scientists revisit a forgotten Soviet plan to dam the Bering Strait and see if it could help protect Earth's climate

Soviet engineer Petr Borisov proposed damming the Bering Strait to warm Siberia. This bold plan aimed to transform frozen lands into productive agricultural areas. Modern researchers now study closing the strait to stabilize ocean circulation. Their simulations explore impacts on the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation system. Scientists remain cautious about such large-scale environmental interventions.
