    More to the point, what will the consequences be of that much carbon being repatriated into the atmosphere? I hear that Siberia has had some awfully hot, miserable summers recently. It’s likely not going to go over well with the climate problems Russia is having.

    Hmmmm.

      The consequences aren’t a secret. Look up the Planetary Solvency actuarial report from earlier this year, for starters.

        This report doesn’t talk about acidification tho. The ocean could drop us faster than light.

        As the ocean warms more co2 can dissolve so its an exponential rise
