Here's a summary of Methane hydrates from Jeremy Leggetts
book 'The Carbon War' - a good read.
His main concern is that masses of methane will be released by
some deposits as a direct result of climate change. (The global
warming potential of methane is 20 X more than CO2)
'Huge amounts of

About time attention was turned to this energy resource---about four
times that contained in more familiar coal, oil and gas reserves.
Some danger of a blowout if pressure is inadvertently released, and
you wouldn't want to breathe a methane

Not that Hubbert's Peak makes much sense to me anyway, even without
methane hydrate
So what effect could this have on the famous Hubbert's Peak of fossil
fuel supplies down whose steep slopes we'll allegedly soon be
tobogganing towards the end of CAWKI? Also, how do these apparently
regular accidental discoveries of new energy resources reflect on
all the assurances we've

I'm a fan of human industry,
Well then, it would make perfect sense to take present and future
energy sources and utilize them in the production of renewable
industries, thereby cutting lifetime emissions of any given
amount of energy consumed to a mear fraction (a really small
fraction, not a

Duh, yes. Focusing on Hubbert's Peak commonly leads to that omission.
Mere substitution of fossil fuels is not the answer. But if you
consider climate change, the need for reduction is obvious.
So long as we have something like political-economic systems that are oriented
to the idea that one
The Second article mentioned
some very interesting claim as to a find that there is a rapid
rate of new
formation of the Methane. Now *that* would be *really*
interesting. Almost
like trees and biomass growing all the time on land, so if you
harvested
only-so-much it would be a renewable

I don't see anything that's going to stop us. Except climate change -
much more important than Hubbert's Peak. That's the reason to cut
down on fossil fuels and find alternatives, not because we're going
to run out of them.

You don't have to leave Victoria to find an abundance of gas in BC.
