higher latitudes of the planet warming extremely rapidly, that
heat itself, and some of its consequences — such as raging
wildfires in northern forests — could unleash a climate
disaster. Perennially frozen northern soils, known as
permafrost, contain enormous amounts of carbon because the slow
and cold chemistry of the Arctic makes them the repository of
thousands of years of frozen plant remains. Warming could cause
this plant matter to break down, be decomposed by bacteria and
emit ancient carbon to the atmosphere in the form of carbon
dioxide and methane...And the amounts of carbon involved are
enormous — one common estimate is that there’s more than twice
as much carbon stored in northern permafrost as there is
currently wafting about the planet’s atmosphere.<br>

<font size="-1"> "one of the largest sources of anthropogenic
secondary organic aerosols in North America." ... <br>
Pollution from industrial bitumen operations pulsates into the
atmosphere at the rate of 55 to 101 tonnes a day. Scientists
aren't sure if the pollution is coming from mine sites, upgraders,
or 220 square kilometres of lakes containing mining waste -- or
all three... the tarsands remain the largest single source of
greenhouse gases in the country. Environment Canada reported this
year that the nation's oil and gas sector was the largest
greenhouse gas emitter in Canada and accounted for 192 megatonnes
or 26 per cent of the nation's total emissions.</font><br>
