"Worldwide, scientists are trying to see if rising ocean temperatures cause more leaks." Who writes this crap?

So do the climate “scientists” (aka: compromised liars and morons) say that we will die tonight or what?

No not tonight, but shortly after the Ascension of the Queen to the Throne there will be lots of wet work on non-loyal parties.

Ooh! The most basic organic compound in the universe just reared its ugly head again.

Stupid people who believe other people are stupider than they are.

Only 500 vents? There should be many more. And what about the huge amount of methane hydrates that are just waiting to be collected for LNG production? Clean gas for years to come.

Isn’t methane in crystal form at those pressures and temperatures?

I glanced at the article. I didn’t see anything about the depth of these vents. If deep enough you are right!

I remember seeing a pie chart about man-made petroleum spills in the oceans vs natural petroleum venting. These are spills from oil platforms, tanker mishaps etc. Bottom line, man-made spills very insignificant compared to what mother nature leaks into the ocean. Also at the bottom of the graphic was a statement pointing out that pie chart area for the natural leakage was a minimum estimate. The true amount is probably much much higher and dynamic!
