How do you psychologically deal with extraordinary facts that seem to point out that humanity may have already caused its own extinction? The temperature in the arctic rises much faster than in the rest of the world (arctic amplification). As a result, methane clathrates (frozen methane/water combination) thaws, and methane (natural gas) boils up from the oceans. Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas. Similar processes are thought to have led to the Permian Mass Extinction. Scientists are increasingly worried that temperatures may rise as quickly as they did then, within decades from now. How do you deal with information like this, from a psychological perspective? youtu.be/gifTaozM86o
