La hipótesis del fusil de clatratos

The video discusses methane as a potent greenhouse gas, its sources, and its impact on climate change. Methane clathrates, found deep in the ocean and permafrost, pose a risk if destabilized, potentially leading to significant methane release. The clathrate rifle hypothesis suggests that such releases could have irreversible effects, intensifying global warming. Methane emissions in the Arctic have increased significantly, raising concerns about the timeline of these impacts.

Explain the clathrate rifle hypothesis and its implications for climate change.

How have methane emissions from the Arctic zone changed in recent years, and what is the cause?
