The world is getting hotter, with that heat comes drought and wildfires. Excess heat
in the atmosphere creates more potent and destructive storms. Some areas are projected
to get so hot that human life will not be sustainable year-round. Even in the frigid
tundras and taigas of the world, heat is becoming an inevitable problem. As permafrost
begins to thaw, thousands of tons of methane trapped within the ice are released back
into the atmosphere, causing temperatures to spike.
