But hey, #permafrost releasing even more CO2 is fine? Don’t you all love it when life is full of exciting #climateChange extremes?😍 pic.twitter.com/FRZ8ck2ibU
( Yes, I have deliberately simplified #permafrost melt and ensuing carbon release… it’s not technically just #CO2, but something more understandable, I hope, in principle.
Have a read on Wikipedia for more complete explanation: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permafros… )
The estimated decrease in daily fossil #CO2 emissions from the severe and forced confinement of world populations of -17% (-11 to -25%) at its peak are extreme and probably unseen before. Still, these only correspond to the level of #emissions in 2006.
