More on Arctic methane–are we really f**ked?
Wow, this is a headline I didn’t want to read. “If we release a small portion of Arctic carbon, ‘We’re fucked’: Climatologist Yup. That’s (more or less) what Dr. Jason Box, a widely published glaciologist, tweeted. He had been following the developments from an expedition into the Arctic in search of data on methane releases. Scientists […]
