And it's quite scary if you consider the amount of methane stored in Siberia and northern Canada.<p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clathrate_gun_hypothesis" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clathrate_gun_hypothesis</a>
I believe this same dynamic will apply to the oceans as they warm. They're like a can of Coke. Heat it up and the carbonation goes away. It's a horrifying positive feedback loop of global warming.
I'm really curious about marine cloudseeding as a potential mitigator to permafrost melt. Essentially, high-efficiency saltwater aerosolization to create nuclei for cloud formation...<p>Here is a 2019 paper on the critical role of clouds in arctic cooling

Tropical forests are also now a carbon emitter:<p><a href="https://www.carbonbrief.org/tropical-forests-no-longer-carbon-sinks-because-human-activity" rel="nofollow">https://www.carbonbrief.org/tropical-forests-no-longer-carbo...</a>
Worth noting that this research is about co2 specifically and not methane.<p>"... the research didn't measure methane, a greenhouse gas about 30 times more potent than carbon dioxide that is also released from soil."
Regardless of the truth of this story and the facts surrounding climate change Canadian media is not a credible source of information.<p>The CBC gets $2 BILLION/yr from the Trudeau Liberal government. All other private news orgs have a hand in a $600 Million/yr pot. For example, the Toronto Star alone receives $5.2 Million/yr from the Canadian federal government.<p>We can all agree this is a bad system apt to produce favourable results for the Liberals. For example, they won re-election on Monday.
