Why This New Study On Arctic Permafrost Is So Scary
Scientists might have to change their projected timelines for when Greenland’s permafrost will completely melt due to man-made climate change, now that new research from Denmark has shown it could be thawing faster than expected.
Published Monday in the journal Nature Climate Change, the researchshows that tiny microbes trapped in Greenland’s permafrost are becoming active as the climate warms and the permafrost begins to thaw. As those microbes become active, they are feeding on previously-frozen organic matter, producing heat, and threatening to thaw the permafrost even further. Read More
Melting Faster Than A Snowball In Hell

Metrics on ice can therefore provide a fairly accurate measure of life capacity and can be modelled to determine timelines. Timelines remember that will articulate exponential speed near the end.
No further words required.
