Photo of the Day: An infrared photo of the surroundings of the Berezovka River in Siberia. Yeah, forest fires. There are more this year. Testimonials talk about spontaneously igniting trees, because the crux of this picture is not the smoke, but the fact that the whole landscape is red. That's what infrared photography does, making heat visible. Then mother earth turns red. It's 40 degrees in Siberia.Again, it's 40 degrees in Siberia.I saw a Dutch scientist on television who knew the emission of methane from the defrosting permafrost. That is one of the consequences of the astonishing temperatures in the Arctic region, temperatures resulting from climate change that we have caused, which causes a number of self-enhancing effects in the Arctic, which are causing the world's freezer at a rapid pace. it's defrosting. With forest fires, villages and cities that disappear into the ground and thus methane, a greenhouse gas 23 times as strong as CO2, which is blown into the atmosphere in large quantities from the thawing subsoil. And so this scientist said, “I don't understand why no one of these panicked.” I can reassure him. Because I know it makes no sense, but the panic has broken out here.
