Thank you, Miss Ann.  It appears the data supports Shakhova's conclusions, but it seems serious scientists are being pressured to downplay reality.  Neoliberal exploitation depends on the illusion of growth and everything appearing normal, even as oil and global shipping have collapsed.  And methane sinks ships.

I wonder if Shell fled the Chukchi for having struck methane.

Pools of bubbling methane that were six inches across in 2013 became miles wide in 2014.  The massive deforestation in Indonesia for palm plantations has ignited underground peat fires that will burn forever.  The peat is 60 feet deep there.

There is evidence that global oxygen is decreasing faster than CO2 is rising.
Projects Lucy and Alamo may be operational, even though they utilize every molecule of oxygen in the process.  Then the question becomes, "What living creature can breathe nano-diamonds and survive?"
