........Permafrost is rapidly warming and drying out in Siberia and the Canadian Northwest Territory. Thawing permafrost can release stored carbon through the increased risk of fire. That will ADD to the CO2 in the upper atmosphere which reflects heat back to the Earth and our mid-latitudes.

I think it is naive to think that the overpopulation of this planet has no effect on it. Most people want their creature comforts and are not willing to make changes to help this planet. Just take a walk down the laundry aisle in the grocery store. Plastic all the way. Try to find detergent in a cardboard box anymore. We are destroying this planet.
