Dont jump to conclusions, of course. But dont jump to questions? A strange turn of phrase. Siberia is certainly warming. There is a huge amount of evidence for this. http://www.climatehotmap.org/global-warming-locations/northeastern-siberia.html http://www.climatehotmap.org/global-warming-locations/northe... Questioning whether this warming is causing more examples and more extreme examples of this sort of phenomenon is certainly reasonable. (Maybe its not, I dont know, but to a rational person it begs the question) There is already growing evidence for warming in Siberia causing the release of methane resulting in craters. http://siberiantimes.com/science/casestudy/news/n0076-how-global-warming-could-turn-siberia-into-a-giant-crater-time-bomb/ http://siberiantimes.com/science/casestudy/news/n0076-how-gl...
