    "The researchers estimate that the northern permafrost region emitted 38M tons of CH4 and 670,000 tons of N2O into the atmosphere between 2000 & 2020. That's very little compared with the emissions of a major industrialized country, but the pace may accelerate as the world warms."

    The rate of carbon emission is actually accelerating, last year breaking all records.
    "On the micro-scale, around 84 trillion new molecules of CO2 were added to every cubic centimetre of Earth’s atmosphere last year."

    The emissions caused by bottom trawler fishing scouring up sediment is estimated to be equivalent to 370 million metric tons of CO2.

    That’s more than twice that emitted by the global fishing industry’s burning of fossil fuels.
