Huge Siberian pits formed due to methane release. And that isn't good.
WaPo: The news isn't good
I find it telling that nothing like these pits has previously been seen in the Arctic. That suggests warming of the permafrost has crossed a threshold into a new realm where unexpected things are now happening.
Something new under the sun.....
