Permafrost Accelerates Climate Change


New computer modeling study reveals the likeliness of profound carbon dioxide release from soil as a result of warming soil due to climate change. However, this change will spark growth in high-latitude regions, which will pull in more carbon from the atmosphere than the amount of carbon the thawing permafrost will release, demonstrating the flaws in former climate change models.
