That took a drastic turn from joyfully discovering thousands years old intact species to whole planet being in a serious danger of massive scale carbon eruption
If only that was so easy. We have no idea about via what manner it will spread, how contagious it will be, how deadly or how good it will be in surviving without carrier.
Extremely important video! We need to protect the Arctic asap! Our crew registered how these changes are damaging the whole wildlife in the Arctic. Orcas were rarely seen there, for example. But, now, our team caught on camera these dolphins taking it over and hunting animals that were not even aware of their existence. It's very concerning when we think about the species that live there and how they are going to cope with all these changes.
Wow ! I never knew how much knowledge is stored in the Arctic. But I expect by the way things are going now all those fossils which have been preserved for millennia will just sink to the ocean floor, their stories unheard and secrets undiscovered.
Had annual project on topic climate change, learned about permafrost and consequences of it's melting. Permafrost stored lot of methane gas, which is getting released in atmosphere due to global warming, increasing green house gases even more and it's basically a perpetual loop
Earth needs it cool. By the way, I have difficulty communicating because I had a stroke in Broca’s area, the part of the brain that controls speech. 2/8/2021 but I lived again. (My wife helped me compose this.)
There are no actual global observational data on changes to permafrost. The Li et al 2022 paper 'Changes in permafrost extent and active layer thickness in the Northern Hemisphere from 1969 to 2018' states "The temporal change characteristics of the permafrost extent and ALT [active layer thickness] for the NH [Northern Hemisphere] have not been studied." These things have only been poorly estimated or modelled. The aforementioned paper modelled permafrost extent decreased from 23.25 × 10⁶km2 (average from 1969 to 1973) to 21.64 × 10⁶km2 (average from 2014 to 2018), with a linear rate of −0.023 × 10⁶ km2/a. That's an annual change of 0.099 of a percent. That's negligible and could just as easily be increasing due to the uncertainty in the modelling. Out of global estimated emissions of methane of around 600 Tg CH4 per year, the best estimate of emissions from pan-Arctic permafrost is 1 Tg CH4 per year (Elder et al, 2021), so that's less than 0.17%. It's almost nothing. When it comes to tipping points this is what the IPCC (Special Report on implications of 1.5C or more warming, Chapter 3) says:“there is little evidence for a tipping point in the transition from perennial to seasonal ice cover. No evidence has been found for irreversibility or tipping points, suggesting that year-round sea ice will return given a suitable climate”. The IPCC also do not believe the melting of the arctic permafrost will cause a tipping point in the release of warming methane gas “the carbon released to the atmosphere from thawing permafrost is projected to be restricted to 0.09-0.19 Gt C yr-1 at 2°C of global warming and to 0.08-0.16 Gt C yr-1 at 1.5°C, which does not indicate a tipping point”. The Earth's climate is a multi input thermodynamic system and will conform to Le Chatelier's Principle.
There is another feed back loop that might be even more worrying. Namely the Compost Loop. Even if the thawed permafrost remains anaerobic, when anaerobic bacteria re-annimate, they produce heat as they begin to munch on the surrounding organic material. If Oxygen reaches the thawed permafrost, as it is likely to do, even more heat is released. This, if it reaches a critical level might well be one of the much talked about tipping points. More heat, more thaw, more heat, more thaw etc.
Cities of the Elder Things? (And before pointing it out, there isn't anything in the Cthulhu Mythos which suggests they haven't colonised the Arctic as they had the Antarctic)
This is so important. It shows you what climate change can actually do. I think it should be presented in schools worldwide. Because we, the youth, gen z gen alpha and all the more to come, are thw future of this planet. Everyone should know this
This is a beautiful animation with excellent narration. Thanks for raising awareness about this. I really wish humans would learn its high time :/ Also is there any liberal arts student here. I want to know how can they contribute in such organizations ?
Как удобно , обвинять людей в том что глобальные изменения на нашей планете летящей сквозь космическое пространство на немыслимой скорости , взаимодействующей не только с телами солнечной системы но и со всем что происходит в космосе в целом , это их вина . Если одна лишь луна влияет на планету очень сильно , то теперь можно представать как влияют другие небесные тела ..........
This sobering video is well-done, and very probably accurate. Sadly, given human nature I doubt much can be done about global warming, and the disappearance of permafrost. Humans seem far too self-centered to mount the enormous global effort to curb climate change. But hey, I could be wrong, and I certainly hope I am.
@@Touhou20246 mr. Costanzo,, thank you. I doubt that will happen. I actually think the world is presently getting warmer, as it has for millennia. But everything changes, periodically, including the weather. It will cool off again. Climate change has become a political issue as you know. And politics poisons most everything.
I love how humans literally bullied and manipulated animals til they literally do nothing without us and will die so we HAVE to take care of em.. And those animals think we are doing them a favor and we love them/we care for
Did you talk to those animals. How did you know that they think of us as angels. Also it is our responsibility and animals own importance which force us to do things
The fact that those remains are there tells you that the climate was not always as it is now. It has changed and will always be changing, you can't stop it. Nature has always adapted and will continue to adapt. Humans have also adapted and will continue to do so.
@@mellohi6175 Really? But to some extent, I do agree, without all the fiddling of weather statistics and changing of historical data, the warming would be much slower. There has been change and will be change but it is not catastrophic change. What is catastrophic is the damage that is being done to the environment by the solar panel farms and wind farms. Species are being threatened and forests cleared so that these can take over the land to create intermittent power. Plus no one seems to take into account the amount of CO2 created in their manufacture (mainly in China the biggest emitter of CO2). Not to forget the currently unsolved problem of what to do with them once they have finished their usefulness. Nor to forget the use of child labour in the procuring of the minerals needed in their manufacture and the batteries needed. I could go on and on, but I am wasting my time because facts mean nothing to zealots and big money.
So researchers will figure out another piece of the puzzle while opportunists AKA government/corporate America will take advantage of this information and exploit it for their own personal benefit.
The session had more conservation part than what can be found and what can be done. (I am not against conservation but the session could have been broken to 2 parts then)
As a science show, it's grossly incorrect to say the first nations lived in the arctic since time immemorial. We have archeological records of when people started living there and where they migrated from.
Queue the absolute flood of people that will scream, "We're destroying our planet!" to make themselves feel good, and then continue to live life exactly the same way they had before. I'm sure most of us recycle and would have solar on our houses and drive electric cars if we could afford it, but inflation is out of control. If people wanted to really stop climate change, they'd target the large businesses that account for like 70-80% of the damage being done today, not the individual home owner just trying to make their way in this world.
Brendan needs to get back to concentrating on Leicester, his work on this explains why they aren't performing. You can't do both Brendan. Although this is great, so maybe stick to the TED talks?
I hope that a few people got lost in the ice too and are still preserved. Don't get me wrong, but I want us to be found someday too. Unless of course after us some kind of intelligent civilization appears on earth, If the Earth is not destroyed by a giant asteroid
Me and my stoopid brain: "Can't we use liquid nitrogen to refreeze them?" I don't know the science. If someone can please educate me on the pros and cons?
You mean the pros and cons of dumping liquid nitrogen to solve a non existent problem? The ice caps aren't melting. I don't know what to tell you. You can see they are fine.

But has Earth always been as cool as now?
The “runaway carbon emissions” cycle is intriguing. Love the animation, as always.
