The amount of methane this melting will release from the permafrost is a thing that keeps me up at night. It’s unreversable, it’s far worse than co2. It will acclerate things in ways nobody can even predict.

That’s okay, we’ll just move our cropland and cities north of Siberia.

ha ha ha we are so fucked

If you want to feel weird and not-okay I suggest looking at the giant crater formed by melting permafrost they found out there

Words will not express how I feel as I contemplate its yawning vastness

Seems bad.

It’s a dangerous feedback loop: as sea ice melts, the Arctic reflects less sunlight, and the ocean absorbs more heat. This generates even more sea ice loss. The region is warming as much as four times faster than the rest of the world.

Hey, Siberia will now become a tropical holiday zone
