the melting of the arctic is completely related to the re-emerging of russia as a world power. the reason why the US even cares about it is because warmer temperatures will finally give russia seaports that don't freeze and a navy that doesn't need to be approved by NATO due to the Bosporus strait.

TL: DR, we're fucked. The more I see on this, the more convinced that I am that we've probably waited too long. I really don't think people are sitting around envisioning the scenarios for how this plays out. There are going to be places on the planet that now support life that simply won't in the future. Is there a way to cool all the populated areas in the Middle East without warming the earth further? What do we do with the people displaced due to rising oceans, people from places like the Maldives? The scariest thing is that we haven't dealt with this yet. Our best shot so far has been the Paris Accords and they do practically nothing. It's almost certainly alarmist to say that all civilization could break down in 5-10 years, but it's terrifying that there's a qualifier there. It's terrifying that it's "almost." No one was talking about trapped methane 20 years ago. There could be something else we haven't thought of, and global climate impacts so many other things that human beings need that it's almost a certainty that there are things that we aren't seeing now.

It seems the most destructive thing a climate scientist can say is "by 2100". Right now the Arctic sea ice is very thin and it pulled away from the north Greenland coast in February (right next to the Fram strait). The US navy scientists have said the Arctic Ocean could be ice-free by 2019. Without the sea-ice the ocean warms rapidly, this decreases the temperature difference between the equator and north pole. Stable jet stream weather patterns depend on a large temp difference. Destabilized jet streams create constant weather extremes that would destroy; grain production, forests, humanity, most life on Earth. For this guy to say it might be 8 - 10 degrees warmer in the Arctic in 2100 and that "could take us to a tropical type world". Good luck, humanity. Also the reindeer idea won't work. Like trying to stop poaching in Africa. When people get hungry they'll shoot these animals. Humanity needs to protect that 1.8 trillion tons of permafrost carbon like our lives depend on it, because they do.

Your theories are leaving out many factors, namely (1) the sun, which warms the earth unevenly, and (2) evaporation, which leads to more snow and building back up of the glaciers, (3) the Milankovitch cycles, of which the tilt, orbit, (etc.) sometimes compounds the uneven heating of the earth by the sun.

He's clearly not talking about chopping down all the trees... Just in tundra biomes where the permafrost is located. Secondly, there is a mountain of data related to the amount of methane trapped below the surface vs the amount of co2 which would've been converted by the trees you had cut down. Unless you've actually looked at all this data and taken into account everything just keep your opinions to yourself. This is all peer reviewed by much more qualified people than you yourself and is most likely tailored to bring the most beneficial results to us lesser informed people. If you do look through the data and find something note worthy I'd be more than happy to take that into account.

I have two questions: 1. Did the mammoth not die out due to the change of climate that we have now? 2. Isnt removing millions of acres of trees just as bad for the environment?

I'ts actually proven that big grasslands are a key factor in the earths temperature cycles.

Remember "seeding" clouds to make it rain. Since then & utilizing technology developed by Tesla, many patents have been taken out by The Deep State's Industrial Military Complex to control the weather. These people, who answer to no body, have been preventing rains in the Western states to create draught conditions. Lately steered torrential rains over the states of NE & IA, creating flooding enough to destroy crops, tillable soil & livestock. They can re-directed the jet stream to bring the warm air over the Arctic, melting icebergs & permafrost releasing methane gas that IS destroying our ozone layer. This is why we have been experiencing extreme unusually & unseasonable weather recently. Then they call it “Climate Change” & scare the People into spending $Trillions to fix this or we will all die. WHAT A SCAM! I SAY, EXPOSE THE CORRUPTION, DEFUND IT & PROSECUTE THEM ALL. THEN “CLIMATE CHANGE” WILL STOP, ALLOWING NORMAL WEATHER TO RETURN! kzread.info/dash/bejne/rJ6BmMtueNbPf6Q.html

Excellent segment Vice!

grass lets more water into the ground than a forest. the animals are compacting the topsoil. compacted wet soil freezes deeper.

1:05 that was amazing!

The Mammoth part is best and all but it just seems like we're playing with too much fire there.

That lady REALLY needs to work a better method out lol cracking me up every time the torch goes up

What about a long "pick axe" with it's handle to keep your distance from the hole and gas escape? Instead of a pole and standing over? You'd have to modify possibly for deep ice but could keep your distance from flames.

I feel like they should have been using longer sticks at the very least.

I've always held on to a belief that diverse, incremental geoengineering efforts could help stem the tide of warming. This idea of clearing the land to keep permafrost temperatures low is encouraging to that end. I'll be curious to see what comes of it.

Easily one of the most unexpectedly amazing videos I have ever seen

she bout burnt her face to a crisp lmao

I'm looking forward to when the mammoth revives.

Vice here is a question. When all the ice is melted and no longer holding up the current height of the land, how much of the land area affected will be underwater or below sea level as a result? Even at today's sea levels, how much land area will we loose world wide, permanently covered with water?

The angle that they are hitting the ice is pointing the escaping gas right at them. Maybe an “L” shaped “poker” so they can have space to work and have the escaping gas blow straight up.

Automate the whole thing. 1. Create hubs that hold multiple drones (5-6) and are stationary 2. Helicopter those hubs strategically at the best locations between lakes 3. With google maps or with benevolent online volunteering, get those drones flown to the locations 4. Fly up, pick goes straight down as the drone falls, small flame under the drone, big spring under the drone to make it jump back up immediately as it made the whole

Instead of High Schoolers going Cow Tipping in Iowa they will be Methane Hunting in Alaska.

Wait they are talking about temperature degree in F or C? Like 8°C increase will surely make us die

Apparently 8 degrees Celsius increase is about the human extinction limit.

Also super interested on the reconstruction of Mammoth DNA - pretty sure I know the methods they'll use and roughly how long it'll take to assemble a full and 'correct' genome (well, set of genomes) but I hope to be surprised when I check the literature.

This is an awesome documentary!!!

You need a longer torch.

how do you guys still not have captions (that aren't auto generated) in 2018

Just 20 thousands years ago NYC was under an ice sheet that was as 2 miles thick in some places. This is what the earth does.

This is a very good and interesting documentary

that crater is insane

as salty water washes up against glaciers, it might mix with the already melting ice, lowering the freezing point. this might induce further melting. if the oceans were less salty, deeper freezing might occur in the colder months, and less thawing in the warmer ones. Many populations are in need of sources of drinking water. Might ocean water desalination help kill two birds with one stone?

I'm thinking that those two who were igniting the methane could have done it a bit more safety.

I'm sure it doesn't really compare to the volume trapped in the permafrost but it would be interesting to know how much methane the new massive herds will produce as they graze. Also, the trees they kill probably trap more CO2 than the grass that replaces them, but CO2 is better than methane as a greenhouse gas.

Pretty funny. In one shot at 10:25, you can see a pingo in the distance. No mention though about how it formed and what happens when it bursts.

most insightful vice report I have seen in a while

I first began to become aware of the phenomenon of melting permafrost in the early 1980s when I read about tombstones of Alaska's early settlers tipping over because permafrost was melting. And now, a long time Alaskan resident that I met recently shared how winter's lowest winter temperatures in the Arctic are about 20 degrees above normal. Then I read about how it is the higher winter temperatures that are having the greatest influence in permafrost melting.

The whole earth as tropics - wow! I love that idea. Tired of cold and long winters.

A Month in an Arid Region, you'll eat your own words !

Hahaha... I can watch the beginning over and over again and still lol 😂

Brillant coverage

Excellent video, Vice

This video was dope, needs to go viral
