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???

[InvisibleChurch]

Well, if it's thawing then it's not really perma-frost, now is it?

[lexington minuteman 1775]

We could just burn it? bwahahahahaha! You are right we are all doomed!

Wow, the 'Chicken Little Syndrome' hard at work.

[Question Liberal Authority]

Oh. My. GOD. Not CARBON!!! Not CARBON - the fundamental building block of all life on Earth!!! Not CARBON, which, when mixed with oxygen in just the right proprotions, forms a perfect PLANT FOOD! Not CARBON, which can be morphed into such insidious products as Diamonds, Coal and Graphite!!! Please god no! Say it isn't CARBON!!!!

As permafrost thaws and releases co2 it also blooms with plant life that require co2 for growth. Sounds like a self regulating system to me.

The greenies are simply terrified at the prospect of vast areas of permafrost region warming enough to permit the cultivation of winter wheat, thereby making it possible to feed more people.

Besides all that, no one is even close to understanding the global carbon cycle.

"You have anthropogenic (human-generated) carbon that's making things a little bit warmer, and that causes the permafrost to warm up and carbon is then released from the permafrost," he said."

And there it is, the greenies wettest wet dream.

They have a tendency to mistake their wishes for theory.

[Centurion2000]

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Ancient roots and bones locked in long-frozen soil in Siberia are starting to thaw, and have the potential to unleash billions of tons of carbon and accelerate global warming, scientists said on Thursday.

This is a win win for Russia and Canada. If Global Warming REALLY kicks off, they beomce the new breadbaskets of the world.

The tundra is actually carbonated water that was stored there by space aliens who used it for soft drinks.

They're gonna be mad if we drink it all. /sarcasm
