Just look at a polar projection map of the earth, centered on the North Pole. One-quarter of all land is now unavailable to forest growth and agriculture due to permafrost. Melting of permafrost would yield tons and tons of methane, plus yield huge swaths of newly-productive woodland and farmland.

I mean, there are a lot of creative things you could do with all that methane. Which is just one tiny aspect of all the creative things you could do with Global Warming.

If... sigh... if warming were actually happening...instead of the coming Little Ice Age...

But who knows? Keep posted on those two solar magnetic belts. That's where the action is.

Yeah... funny all the screaming about being cooked off the earth, rather than what we could do with a thawing earth.

Even though the long term cycles show this up as the equivalent of an Indian Summer, with a deep chill lurking close behind it. So it’s 80 degrees out in November? Don’t worry, December is at hand.
