Ron,
Note the following on p. 4: Nations should also avoid removal of
carbon sinks by stopping deforestation, and should strengthen carbon
sinks by reforestation of degraded lands. They also need to develop
and deploy technologies that draw down excess carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere.
I would
Dear Peter,
I agree entirely with your analysis of how we have got into this
critical situation with the methane. And I agree that the challenge of
stopping the methane and halting the sea ice retreat is daunting. But
this challenge does not even seem to be recognised by the scientific

I should have noted that important paragraph on carbon dioxide removal (CDR)
myself. It was probably the main reason for recommending the report. Thanks for
pointing that paragraph out.
Re below: I thought it was also important to point out again (ad nauseum - with
apologies) that
Dear all,
As I understand it, carbon in the Arctic is stored in a number of
different forms:
1. Plants and plant material in tundra above permafrost
2. Plant material trapped in permafrost below tundra
3. Plant material and methane hydrate trapped in permafrost below
shallow sea
4.
I've studied methane geoengineering extensively, so here's my tuppence
If you're going to use liquid air, just pump it into the sea bed where there
are leaks in the permafrost clathrate cap.
Draining bogs will help. Dry material doesn't emit methane
Shelling methane vents with incendiary shells
Dear all,
For years, I have been trying to get more people to brainstorm on ways
to deal with Arctic methane.
Last month, I added a post on this, discussing ways to ignite methane
or produce hydroxyl, at:
