the permafrost is a long frozen layer of
soil , that has underpinned the Arctic
tundra ,and boreal forests of Alaska,
Canada and Russia . it is appending the
lives of 3.6 million people. the toying
of the former Frost ,and these people
largely live in Portal regions. but it’s
not only the polar region , which should
be a cause of concern . the latest
estimates suggesting that the magnitude
of carbon emissions from permafrost by
the end of this Century ,could be equal
to or bigger than present-day emissions
from major fossil fuel emitting Nations.
the vast amount of carbon stored in the
northernmost reaches of our planet is an
underestimated driver of the climate
crisis . according to NASA ,.
The Frozen
Ground holes are estimated 1700 billion
metric tons of carbon . which is roughly
51 times the amount of carbon, the world
released as fossil fuel emissions in
- one of the reasons why permafrost
pawing goes unnoticed is because, it is a
buried phenomenon , you don’t see it ,and
it’s covered by vegetation and soil. but
it is a pressing issue as Towing is
waking up the microbes in the soil . that
Feast on organic matter allowing methane
and carbon dioxide to escape from the
soil and into the atmosphere.
further it can also open Pathways for
methane to Rise Up, from the reservoirs
deep in the Earth.
