Well let's hope the scientists are right about this coming little ice age.
But either way, cant get hysterical about this stuff because there isnt dick we can do about it anyway!
Reading comprehension ain't your strong suit, is it? I stated that this Russian scientist has noticed Siberia (you know, that really cold place), is having it's permafrost melting. That is the exact opposite of a coming ice age.
Nah I get it....but I just posted the other day of Russian scientists ( not affiliated with Trump btw) predicting a coming ice ice for the next 100 years.
Either way....no way to reverse global warming anyway so who cares?
Actually, in his research, the area he is in used to be grasslands because the mammoths kept stomping down the trees. When they went extinct because of being hunted by man, trees started to grow in the area, and it's because of the trees that it's getting warmer up there, as trees hold heat better than open grassland. He thinks that if he can get the place returned to grassland, the winters will start freezing the permafrost again, and will stop greenhouse gases from being released into the atmosphere.
Trees absorb more CO2 than grass, so the trees are better.
You didn't see his research. He said that the reason the permafrost was melting was because of the trees. While you might think that trees would be beneficial up there, they aren't. Why? Because bare ground freezes better than tree covered ground. Trees hold in the heat, causing the permafrost to melt,
Bullshit! Trees shade the ground preventing the sun from heating the ground and thawing it! You obviously never played football in the winter and fell on ground that was in the shade!
