Trig.pm: Don't negatively judge Siberia in pod
The pod referred to a point as being in "frozen wastes". But that judgement is a distraction from the point of the text, and not actually true. I looked at the spot in Google Maps. This area in the summer is verdant, with many rivers and lakes. It is part of the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Putorana_Plateau. The closest place I could (without expending much effort) find a non-satellite photograph of is 60km away: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Putorana2._Lama_lake..jpg Doesn't seem like a wasteland to me. And for history buffs, the plateau contains part of the Siberian Traps, remnants of volanic eruptions generally implicated as a cause of the largest known extinction event, terminating the Permian.
