From Thawing Permafrost, Slow but Steady Emissions Likely

Thawing permafrost releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere
A new synthesis published in Nature suggests that thawing Arctic permafrost will release greenhouse gases gradually, rather than in a sudden "bomb". The gradual rate of these natural emissions may give society more time to adapt to their effects, but they remain a challenge for climate mitigation.
