But, but what about the PLANTS? We are starving them by choking off all their food, how can photosynthisis occur without CO2? Have you low carbon footprint people no FEELINGS for the starving huddled masses of weeds???

See, it's already too late. We may as well drive our Hummers with the A/C blasting, because we can't stop it now... (don't libs ever stop to consider that this is exactly the effect of "calamity fatigue"??)

There's a huge pool of carbon, even more than people thought before, perhaps double the amount of carbon that we thought,"

Then we better drill for it before it gets away!!

Siberia is thawing and that's a bad thing? These people would bitch if the Sahara were turned into an oasis.

And I suppose that when the permafrost is "gone", trees and plants will start sprouting up in those regions and become both a carbon sink and oxygen factory?

More alarmist nonsense, IMO. I personally would prefer a warm earth to one in an ice age.

Well, we better make sure we can burn all that carbon for fuel rather than letting it go to rot.

Hurry!

We need to cover Siberia with those cheap Chinese plastic tarps to keep it from escaping!
