IN the NEWS - "Geological Time Bomb" Scare Now?

A couple of takeaways from the articles below:
1- How might this Scare Tactic be used in the end times? The mark of the beast isn't over so-called climate change---it's over worship---BUT--- a carrot stick to get the world on board could be tinted GREEN, sort of like a Climate Lockdown like basically called for in Ladauto Si'. --and the tools and mechanisms for enforcement as seen in the overblown response to COVID.
2- As for the earth being covered in water--yeah we've been telling them that for a while now---And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered. Genesis 7:19

"The permafrost holds all kinds of secrets. As it decays, it shows an abundance of fossil creatures that once roamed the northern circle.

These creatures range from caribou to ancient people. Whatever it is, their histories have been captured in the frost to have only recently become unearthed....Another staggering find that was resurrected from the frost was the woolly rhino. This furred creature differed from the likes of which we see in the plains of Africa. It didn’t have hairless skin; it had thick, robust tufts of hair to protect it from the blistering cold.

The most shocking find that the scientists had discovered was that the permafrost was also releasing C02—and more so than previously believed. 
 
The melting permafrost often hasn’t been a factor in the calculus of global warming equations.....scientists realized that the permafrost contains twice as much carbon dioxide than currently resides in the atmosphere. If this carbon dioxide were to get released into the air, the result would be devastating. The last time carbon dioxide content was that high in the atmosphere, the Earth was submerged in water....According to experts, permafrost around the world has currently trapped approximately 1,400 gigatons of carbon – four times more than humans have produced in the last 260 years!
 
Right now, the carbon is still trapped in the frozen soil, but if it continues to heat up, then what happens?

Researchers and scientists have run a couple of tests to try to find out, drilling out small samples of permafrost and taking them into a lab to bring them to room temperature. It didn’t take long for bacteria to start growing again, and they were quite hungry after their long sleep. The bacteria converted the carbon in all of those dead plants and animals into gasses– mainly carbon dioxide and methane.

Scientists are becoming increasingly worried that the thaw will lead
to an epic feast for bacteria and archaea that produce carbon dioxide and methane. And although climate models have long accounted for the carbon-emitting capacity of Arctic permafrost and Arctic lakes, the microbial activity within has largely been treated as a black box, changing in sync with the physical properties of the ecosystem, including temperature and moisture. That’s a problem, says Carmody McCalley, a biogeochemist at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York. “If your model doesn’t get the mechanism right, it’s probably not going to do a great job of making predictions,” she says.

As scientists look more closely at the organisms living in these environments, the findings are beginning to bubble up. The identity of the dominant microbes in transitional permafrost settings can make a difference to the types of greenhouse gas emitted, for example. The depths of Arctic lakes could be more sensitive to climate change than expected, owing to the types of microbes they host. And the availability of iron and other nutrients in the soil could accelerate greenhouse-gas production in some locations.

Although there are still unknowns about how the landscape will change in response to warming — and questions such as the role of viruses in the soil remain largely unanswered — gathering data on the microbes is leading to a more holistic view of what’s going on. “It let us see under the hood,” says Virginia Rich, a microbiologist at the Ohio State University.
What would you do to save this geological time bomb from exploding?"
