"Nikita & Olga Belov fled their homeland in 2022 after attracting the attention of Russian #authorities - including #military summons, threatening #messages & attempts to locate them - after expressing #opposition to the full-scale #invasion of Ukraine."

  8. Nell’ultimo anno, dopo la morte del dissidente politico #AlexeiNavalny avvenuta il #16febbraio del 2024 in un carcere in #Siberia in circostanze mai chiarite, è iniziato un periodo molto complicato per l’opposizione russa, che già prima era perseguitata sistematicamente dal regime di #VladimirPutin . Oggi sembra che l’unica opposizione possibile al regime di Putin sia quella condotta dai dissidenti all’estero, che però hanno un’influenza assai limitata.

  10. Oooops! From 2010: "But Shakhova pointed out that scientists had not thought subsea permafrost would begin to thaw and release the gas. She said more research is needed to figure out whether the methane leaking from the #EastSiberianArcticShelf is an ongoing, steady phenomenon, or whether it suggests a new source of the gas is emerging as seafloor permafrost thaws."

    Methane Leaks off Siberian Coast, Speeding Climate Change

    Warmer oceans are thawing methane deposits, adding more of the greenhouse gas to the atmosphere

    By Lauren Morello & ClimateWire

    "A large amount of methane is bubbling up from the ocean floor east of Siberia at a surprising rate and could accelerate climate change, researchers said yesterday.

    The gas is bubbling up from the East Siberian Arctic Shelf because warming ocean water is thawing permafrost, allowing methane trapped underneath to escape. The amount of methane emitted by that one patch of seabed roughly equals the amount scientists believed was released by all of the world's oceans."

  11. A Massive #Methane Reservoir Is Lurking Beneath the Sea

    Scientists have found a methane reservoir below the #permafrost seabed of the #LaptevSea—a reservoir that could suddenly release large amounts of the potent #GreenhouseGas

    by Fanni Daniella Szakal
    27 April 2021

    "Methane bubbles regularly reach the surface of the Laptev Sea in the East #Siberian #ArcticOcean (#ESAO), each of them a small blow to our efforts to mitigate climate change. The source of the methane used to be a mystery, but a joint Swedish-Russian-U.S. investigation recently discovered that an ancient gas reservoir is responsible for the bubbly leaks.

    "Methane in the Laptev Sea is stored in reservoirs below the sea’s submarine permafrost or in the form of methane hydrates—solid ice-like structures that trap the gas inside. It is also produced by microbes in the thawing permafrost itself. Not all of these sources are created equal: Whereas microbial methane is released in a slow, gradual process, disintegrating hydrates and reservoirs can lead to sudden, eruptive releases.

    "Methane is escaping as the Laptev’s submarine permafrost is thawed by the relative warmth of overlying seawater.

    "With an even stronger greenhouse effect than #CarbonDioxide, methane releases into the atmosphere could substantially amplify global warming."

  12. 30 gradi in Siberia

    Avete presente la #Siberia? Quella terra che immaginiamo sempre coperta di #ghiacci, con le #renne e la #neve? Ora ci sono più di trenta gradi. 

    Ed è un problema enorme (pensa di essere una renna a trenta gradi con la pelliccia). Ma non solo, a quelle temperature il rischio di #incendi aumenta tantissimo, il ghiaccio fonde e il rilascio di gas #climalteranti aumenta. 

    Cosa serve ancora per far
