Re: Farting Ice - arctic methane!! (none / 1)
Can't we find an intelligent way to capture those farts and burn them for energy? I thought that technology already existed and was being used to capture methane coming out of garbage dumps.

True enough. But in an area the size of the US, it's probably a better bet to let some bacteria digest it.

And also... capturing it and burning it still releases greenhouse gases.
