Making life on earth a crap shoot.

“But here is the rub: we know we can’t burn all of the fossil fuel reserves, without causing climate chaos.

 

So the concept of burning a new type of carbon – methane hydrates – just seems madness from a climate perspective.

 

Furthermore, to make things worse: the risk of methane leakage into the atmosphere during extraction of hydrates will be a major problem……So we are now willingly exploiting a new resource of carbon, knowing it will lead to climate chaos. That seems madness to me.”
