Slow Onset, High Impact: What Permafrost Means for the Global 1.5°C Target

High-level scientific presentations on permafrost and its relevance to climate negotiations. Content will cover: Trends and understanding of permafrost thaw; the potential carbon dioxide and methane emissions from permafrost thaw and our current climate trajectory; the state of monitoring, measuring, and accounting for these emissions. The ecosystem “tipping” points that are already occurring across the permafrost region and which are likely to worsen and become more widespread as we approach 2°C.

Despite the terrible audio I persisted because it's so interesting. Thanks ❤

It’s too frustrating to listen to with all the people talking in the background.
I actually designed some solar electric power systems for powering Eddy Covariance flux Instrumentation used near Fairbanks, Alaska (10+ years ago.) So the subject matter is interesting to me. Thank you very much for your hard work and trying to get the message out.

Almost unwatchable due to the background sounds.
