The PERMAFROST — is MELTING, “faster than expected”.

Batagaika Crater in Eastern Russia. Melting permafrost isn’t going to magically turn into “farmlands”.

SO.

I have come to realize that I am a “fringe” writer when it comes to Climate Change and the Climate Crisis. I am taking a “very big picture” look at the emerging science and then I am telling you how I “think” it all ties together.

That’s NOT science, it’s analysis. Or, as some would say, it’s my opinion.

I want to be REALLY clear about this, because I don’t want to be misleading. I am going to take the existing research on the permafrost and the Climate System, then present you with my ANALYSIS of what it means. Which is also going to be my interpretation of how the Climate System works.

For the most part, this new interpretation, or paradigm, isn’t NEW. I am not laying out anything radical or “off the wall”. Everything in my interpretation of the Climate System comes from the field of “Climate Science”. However, I am COMPLETELY rejecting the MODERATE Climate Paradigm that has dominated Climate Science for the last 40 years.

The Climate Paradigm of the Moderates.
