“Mother Nature is showing us something that is really surprising,”
How can this be? I thought enviromental scientist knew everything.
If the permafrost were to thaw the rate of evolution of methane would no doubt increase. I do not see the weather being any different than it was 30 years ago, but the permafost was thawing then, so it probably still is. I have seen methane bubbling out of the ground in the yard when there are some puddles to bubble through. But, I also took some of that earth up to chem lab to analyze and it was 100% inert and the water content was pure as we could measure. Since there is no vegetative matter in there, one might assume the methane is evolving very near the surface only.
“Scientists have long known that wetlands produce large amounts of methane...”
Oh, really? Then why have the dolts at the EPA been forbidding farmers from draining any wet spot on their property by labeling it a protected “wetland”? Scientists don’t know beans, it seems.

And getting long in the tusk if you remember that. ;-)
Sure, I remember “The Big Lebowski”. ;’)
So, how is this taxed? Seriously, we subjects of the Obama regime want to know.
