As permafrost melts, it’s not just releasing ancient gases that could supercharge climate change—it might also unleash prehistoric viruses and literally sink entire towns. Picture roads cracking, forests collapsing, and even old diseases making a comeback. Scientists say this isn’t just an Arctic problem; it’s a global crisis in the making. If we don’t act fast, we could be triggering a climate domino effect we can’t stop. #Science #ClimateCrisis #Permafrost3016Share
Zachary Gutierrez+FollowPermafrost Meltdown: The Arctic’s Shocking ShiftFrozen ground turning into a carbon bomb? Permafrost is thawing way faster than anyone thought, and it’s unleashing wildfires, landslides, and even mercury. Arctic villages are literally sinking, mountain huts are at risk, and ancient rivers are being reshaped. Scientists say every 1°C of warming could release as much carbon as 35 million cars! The ground we thought was solid is now the planet’s wild card. Who knew frozen dirt could be this dramatic? #ClimateCrisis #Permafrost #Arctic #Science30Share
megangibson+FollowAncient Germs Are Thawing Out?!Wild update: Melting Arctic ice isn’t just about polar bears—it could unleash ancient diseases and superbugs that have been frozen for centuries. Scientists say as permafrost thaws, old pathogens and pollutants could spread to humans and animals, raising the risk of new pandemics. Plus, all that melting ice is releasing more greenhouse gases, making climate change even worse. The Arctic’s secrets might not stay up north for long! #ClimateChange #Arctic #Permafrost #ScienceNews #GlobalHealth #Science175Share
