armageddon

ARMAGEDDON There is a battle within each of us between good and evil. To-day we live in a world where we are distroying our planet. Unless we reform our ways we are heading for extinction. It has happened in the past where over the last 500,000,000 year life has suffered 5 great extinctions. There is every reason to believe that we are now well into the sixth extinction and this time humans may be included.

METHANE CH4 --- Swamp Gas




Methane is a product of the decaying of the biosphere.

Over the last 400 years in the atmosphere it has increased by 140% much faster than Carbon Dioxide.

As warming continues and the tundra and perafrost melts vaste amounts of methane can be expected to be released. Since CH4 is 20 times more reactive thatan CO2 this is a concern.

An even greater concern is the risk of melting of the gas hydrates. More to follow.
