What if a much of a which of a solar wind... ?
OMG, what happens when the molten carbon and the melting frozen methane deposits under the ocean meet?????
Gaia lets off one hell of a fart?
This is also probably why oil is NOT made of “dead dinosaurs” and why mankind will never run out of oil.
Its also why trying to control mankind’s CO2 output is so stupid - like banning people from farting in a hurricane.
Yeah, it’s 200 miles underground. Not even a giant asteroid could release it. More nutty hysteria from the whacky left.
That's one heck of a Strategic #2 Pencil Reserve.
That would be a major headache.
We will pass the tipping point in one billion years. We must act now!
Perhaps a rock hit it.
I keep trying to explain the difference between chaos and entropy (countable v. uncountable), and it is not working.
Perhaps I should stop.
geologists felt left out of the global-climate-warming-change funding and headlines bonanza, and found a way to cash in.
Oh, it might all be dead dinosaurs (and other biomass), but what we think is earth’s dead dinosaur deposits might be only a small percentage of the whole.
The problem with a putative carbon and hydrogen reaction is, where did the hydrogen come from? If from water, where does the oxygen go? No chance it gets driven off as free oxygen. It’d immediately react.
Is the Earth a big nuclear reactor? Is that the reason there is molten rock at the center even after billions of years?
Some radioactive decay still is believed to go on there, e.g. thorium. That keeps the core, that is mostly iron, liquid. Weird. We’re sitting on a dirt-and-water crust on a big molten radioactive iron ball. And it doesn’t just sizzle off.
700,000:1 odds?!? Way better odds than winning the Lotto!
What is “hogwash” the study, the conclusions, is it political science? The Warmers really don’t want to talk about volcanoes since just the ones erupting put so much crap in the air that it causes global COOLING.
I find it interesting that Yellowstone is close to the center of the pool.
Can somebody tell me, what the atmoshpreric o2 levels have been for the last 200 years?
I believe that humans contribute about 5% of the “Greenhouse Gases” so the rest is from natural sources.
Now you are speculating. You don’t know that we have an iron core - it might be uranium.

"...Earth's interior is known for by its high temperatures where solid carbonates melt, creating distinctive seismic patterns."
The whole thing is a bit incoherent.
