Terrifying Study Finds Melting Permafrost Could Unleash Way More Carbon Than We Thought
11 FEBRUARY 2021
Trapped within the Arctic permafrost there s a whole lot of carbon - potentially up to four times more carbon than the combined amount of CO2 modern humans have emitted.
It s one of the reasons scientists are so worried about the Arctic melting - as the ice goes, this carbon will be released. But now a new study has shown that a melting Arctic may actually unleash far more carbon than even our worst-case models have predicted.
This is because hungry microbes, hiding in the Arctic soil, seem to be chewing their way through tiny molecular iron manacles that would otherwise be shackling carbon to the soil - meaning we ve underestimated the risk of it being released into the atmosphere.
