has not this gas been released over the course of earths history?How can climate change be linked to a rise in methane emissions in the polar regions?Yes, it's been released over earth's history, but not at a constant rate. Seawater warming allows methane bound in seafloor clathrates to be released. Tundra releases methane as it melts, it also allows more biological activity (rotting) which releases methane. Methane release may cause a %26quot;tipping point%26quot; in global climate change. The methane released caused by existing warming provides positive feedback where existing warming releases more methane which causes more warming, which releases more methane. The existence of such tipping points is so far hypothetical, but nobody in climate sciences thinks that finding them by heating up the planet is a good idea.How can climate change be linked to a rise in methane emissions in the polar regions?We have melting permafrost and decomposing methane hydrate.
Your logic is interesting; it's been happening throughout earth's history, therefore the present case isn't significant. Like people have been dying throughout history, therefore WWII (for instance) isn't significant.How can climate change be linked to a rise in methane emissions in the polar regions?yesHow can climate change be linked to a rise in methane emissions in the polar regions?Gas may have been released over the course of Earths life but not as such a rapid rate as now. We are pumping toxins into the air as fast as we can which is the problem. These things naturally are in the air but humans ramped up the speed of which its in the air.
Think about it this way. Everybody knows they should eat food. But if they eat and eat and eat then there are unhealthy consequences to it like diabetes and heart disease. Small proportions are good but enormous ones are not.How can climate change be linked to a rise in methane emissions in the polar regions?That is part of the positive feedback propaganda. Methane rises with the the temperature rises. It rose after the ice age. It fell dramatically during the Younger Dryas. Some %26quot;scientists%26quot; even concluded that the dramatic fall in temperature was caused by humans killing off the megafauna. They of course had to completely ignore the fact that it rose again dramatically again about a thousand years latter obviously without the megafauna. They can't simply say that methane rose because it became warmer and fell when it got cold. It has to be the methane causing the warming. That is the point and it doesn't matter how ignorant they look making those claims. That is the only way they can scare children.
Methane is released every time it warms up. The past warm times didn't cause the climate to spiral out of control but somehow now is different. That is obviously why alarmists are so interested in revising the actual history to fit their agenda with activists like Mann that corrupt data to eliminate past warm periods.
