    The funny thing is I came here from a link from another video where European scientists were researching and worrying about the potential destabilisation of methane hydrates in parts of the arctic ocean. This guy's approach, so well in line with the hydrocarbon industry and the current US administration, isn't so much fiddling while Rome burns as throwing the fiddle on the fire and then finding as much oil as possible to throw on with it.

      My home is powered and heated with hydro, nuclear, biomass, and also municipal waste. Of course not every country has large amounts of biomass, hydro has its limits and nuclear has its problems too. But reality is we really shouldn't use fossil fuels such as hydrates either. The only solution is to drastically cut consumption, like 70-80%. That means living standards of about early 70s. Was it bad? No, it was the best times ever for boomer generation.

    Человеческим пьсалом:
    ☑️Процесс изменения ориентации земной оси связан с перемещением масс поверхностной скорлупы и непосредственно с межфазовым переходом запасов метана, но запускается исключительно следом за ним (3-7лет). Т.е., после переноса атлантического тепла в СЛО механизмом "двойными" проходов, и в следствии этого, появления возможности образовываться припайным льдам в областях Саргаса
    Переток водных масс из карского в ленско-беринговое русло и в следствии этого закупорка пролива приведет к увеличению в два и более раза длины прохода течения в ледовитом бассейне. Так, холодное течение будет нести и дальше, и больше метана, способного образовывать припайные льды, нарушающие балансировку.
    Из-за изменения масс и места размещения припайных льдов, смещается относительно жидкой сердцевины земная скорлупа, и смена полюсов
    Пока Гольфстрим будет носить в своем русле метан, погодные неурядицы будут продолжаться повсеместно
    А пока наблюдаем:
    1. Ход течения в районе Карских ворот.
    2. Закупорки припайными льдами Берингова пролива.
    3. Изменения уровней осадков в прибрежных зонах северной Европы, и юга Великобритании, и понижения температур вод между Канарами и Африкой

      No coming methane crisis but he's completely delusional or ignorant about the climate impacts of using methane in industrialised societies. Academics like this are in the service of fossil fuel industry, UT no surprises there.
      We need to get off as fast as possible. Methane is a bridge to an uninhabitable planet. The lower CO2 emissions in USA following a shift away from coal towards unconventional fossil gas is a mirage in terms of CO2 because there are such high fugitive emissions, the near term warming from rapidly increasing methane stocks (105x as potent in the atmosphere as CO2, Shindell et al, IPCC AR 5) has the potential to push climate warming positive feedbacks that vastly outweigh the lowering of CO2 from burning less coal. Renewables and storage are the only way out of this energy/climate crisis.

    Global warming? Have they just completely stopped telling students about advancing polar ice packs that occur during Earth orbital wain?
    In the '60s & '70s the fear was the next "Ice Age" was looming just around the corner.
    Orbital mechanics describes that axial tilt, precession and orbital forcing occur as the Earth "wobbles" like an extremely massive child's "toy top", but at an extremely slow, and constant rate over a long interval of time.
    In other words planets actually "wax & wain" as they orbit the sun creating advancing, and declining polar icecaps; Earth's cycles at the approximate frequency of 40000 years..
    The colder periods are called glacial periods, or "Ice Age", and the warmer periods called interglacials.
    AKA "Milankovitch cycles" it is the Earth's inevitably recurring event that occurs at a rate of + / - 40000 year cycles.
    The Earth is presently in an interglacial stage hence the receding glaciers & polar ice caps..
    This was the scientific community's accepted theory, and still is except for the last decade a new theory called "early anthropocene hypothesis" has "upset the applecart" to promote the "global warming" scare which the "NWO Cabal" created as a new "divide & conquer" strategy designed to scare uninformed masses into behaving as per their warped agenda; that is it is a powerful global population control method designed to create fear, and guilt by the world's ruling class "Establishment Oligarchs".
    What is being purposely overlooked by the "mainstream propaganda media" is at best the early anthropocene hypothesis only possibly forestalls the onset of a new glacial age.
    In other words what they aren't telling us is that no matter what man does the sub - theorem is " overdue-glaciation hypothesis"; keyword is "overdue".
    Get it?
    Also the moon which literally shepherds the Earth, and heavily controls tidal "ebb & flo" constantly holding it in a steady state of revolution, as it orbits elliptically around our beautiful blue world every 30 days; month in, and month out.
    Have they stopped teaching students that our bright little "nightlight" AKA the Moon is moving away from the Earth at the rate of about an inch per year?
    That is 10 feet every 120 years which is extremely significant not only to Earth's climate, but has many other effects including "Earth tilt angle"; which is everything to global climate.
    Not to mention Earth's magnetic field orientation, and seismic activity.
    Get it?
    IOW I'm all in favor of a clean planet as we all are, but we are only fooling ourselves to believe that man can control climate by individual "carbon footprint" reduction; which is such a farce.
    Notice how big the "Global Warming Zealots" like Hollywood celebrities, music industry performers, and Al Gore all have huge individual carbon footprints?
    They aren't reducing theirs yet they preach to us to reduce our ICFP; because it is a flawed, and bogus concept.
    The Global Warming scare is a huge political football used to pander everything from carbon tax exploitation to population manipulation, and regulation; such as "Agenda 21" etc.
    Get it?

Milankovitch cycles are far too long to explain the rapid climate change we're observing. And *10 feet per 120 years??* Lol what?! Do you honestly believe that makes a significant difference to our climate or axial tilt over a short time period? 10 feet is *0.002 miles* in contrast to the average *240,000 miles* to the moon. What you're saying makes virtually no sense, yet people thumb you up anyway, probably because you're confirming their preconceived biases.
