What's funny is your little followers won't disown you for this egregious error. That just goes to show you how terrible even the sheep that follow you are.
-
shameful.... Terrorism and the methane in the ESAS are not comparable. You should be called out and shunned for this terrible judgement.
-
I wasn't talking about a minority amount and neither was the guy's post I was originally responding to. So the answer appears to be there is not peer reviewed papers that suggest a majority of the methane in the ESAS is in danger of being released in the next 100 years.
-
You should be ashamed to compare methane release to one of the biggest tragedy's in American history, 9/11.
-
You are 100% correct wrt to the bold text I highlighted.
-
idk... A large portion typically means most of it... From what I hear there are massive amounts down there. I was looking for peer reviewed papers that suggest most of that methane is unstable enough to be released in the next 100 years. Honestly, you are one of the only people in this thread who I feel is even worth responding to in a good faith manner. So there you have it.
-
You may have misread my OP. I was objecting to the idea that a large portion of the methane trapped in the ESAS has reasonable potential to be released in the next hundred years.
-
I read through it and didn't read that. If you have time could could show me this information? I would love to read it. I've heard the opposite that it is highly improbable that the vast amounts of methane stored there could have a large portion released in less than 100 years. I've heard a timescale more on the order of thousands of years.
-
I missed the part that suggests a large portion of the methane trapped in the ESAS will be released in the next century.
-
It's not going to be. There are no peer reviewed papers that suggest such a thing. Hence why this thread is a joke. There is a reason people like Don S and wxtrix have not said word one in this thread. They would never associate with such a crackpot theory. Skier did drop in but basically to call some of you out on how ridiculous the claims are.

The warming impact of CH4 is minimal to near nil and most anyone with credibility will tell you the warming from CH4 is nearly non -existent. Also the idea that methane is venting from cracks in the ice is very weak. Unless the methane is right below the large cracks it's not venting from them. We have no idea exactly where the methane is being vented so the idea that it's hitting one of these very small areas with large cracks is a huge stretch. This thread is still a joke and I'd be embarrassed to be pushing the "CH4! OMG we are all going to die!" agenda. This thread needs to be closed and if you guys really wanted to have an honest discussion about methane a new thread should be created free of alarmism. Right now this thread is not helping current perceptions about alarmism.
-
It can't be coming from the arctic, specifically the ESAS which got so much attention last year. Methane is not going to get through meters of ice. The readings are a blip and don't mean much, if anything for the moment. Alarmists will be alarmists... The thread title is just as much of a joke now as it was when the thread was created. It's really pretty embarrassing and should be shut down. If someone wants to talk seriously about CH4 a good start would be to stop posting in this ridiculous thread and start one that has a more reasonable title.
-
Are you guys reading the same subtitle I am? But you really think that? huh... what a fooking joke. It's people like Vergent and TerryM who give the Climate Change subject such a terrible name. Crisis; critical cryospheric carbon clathrate causation. catastrophic climatic calamity could commence.
-
Not the best thread to post this comment in considering mainstream science thinks this thread is an abomination.
-
There is a word for it and it's called weather. I'll explain it to you. Winds which are caused by high and low pressure systems break apart thin ice. This is a weather board, you can't seriously be missing this.
-
I'm still trying to figure out what this has to do with the thread.
-
Do you see the sporadic pixels that aren't 1870+ interlace in there. That's why this is just silly.
-
wtf? btw still a tiny increase
-
The percentage increase is tiny.
-
The Huffington Post? really? The place that thinks anything and everything Kim Kardashian is newsworthy? LOL
-
The entire scale from one side to to other represents about a 5% increase. Even though the colors look bad the total increase in the arctic is around 2% (give or take a bit) or so over of the course of that video. That's not alarming or even much of a concern for me, but to each their own.
-
These ideas are insane. We don't know the ramifications of doing either of these things. Big, big mistake.
-
This entire thread has no business being on a scientific forum. The subject I have no problem with but some of the posts in this thread are a joke.
-
Fair enough, I missed that tbh, it only stays on the screen for a few moments. That said I still can't get over the characterization of methane as farts right after he was talking about stations getting a whiff of methane a few days ago.
-
Honestly, when you have Friv and Skier saying that some posters in this thread are being alarmists, some of you should take a step back and consider if they are talking about you.
