Default Methane now boiling off FASTER in arctic

Well, anyone who thinks that the atmosphere is not in trouble hasn't been reading the news.
We knew about the methane that was being released in the northern polar regions, and yesterday it was announced by NOAA that it was the first time since Hurricane tracks were recorded, that tropical storms were spawned in BOTH the Atlantic AND Pacific Oceans on the same day, and that was 12 days before the start of the season.
NOW comes the report that due to the rapid melting of the
arctic ice that Methane is being released into the atmosphere at higher than earlier reported rates.
The atmosphere of this Planet is in deep trouble, and if things aren't changed NOW it will go over the tipping point before too many years.
I know, then the heavy industries on this planet will call for ANOTHER STUDY that they will debate the findings of.
