Researchers have discovered bubbling methane wells in the East Siberian Sea
A structural change in the production of goods and food is becoming increasingly urgent
The reason is the thawing of the permafrost soil at the bottom of the seabed. It is estimated that 50 gigatons of methane are released at the bottom of the East Siberian Sea alone when the permafrost thaws at the seabed. Methane is 20 times more climate-effective than CO2.
