The trend-line is pretty clear when you lay it all out. The STRIKING thing to me was that the estimate on the amount of Carbon in the Permafrost DOUBLED (x2) in 2008!
As LATE as 2008 and we were -50% too LOW in our fucking "guestimates" about how dangerous the situation was.
THAT, right then, should have prompted a 'Climate Emergency' Summit and reductions in fossil fuel use. Because it CLEARLY indicates that we DID NOT KNOW what we were doing.
Instead, no one even noticed, except for a handful of specialists.
