  1. Some of the methane gas in the bottom of the ocean has been there for hundreds of years.  It is theorized it will evaporate or sublime into the water and go into the atmosphere in the next thirty years as a result of the warming of the gulf stream.  As it warms it increases in speed and increases the mixing in the North atlantic.  This increases the plankton growth.  Eventually it will increase the production of oxygen and reduction of co2.  This takes more time than we have.  We are going into a weather pattern and global temperatures like they were around 800 A.D.  This is when Greenland was green and had villages, exported timber and cattle products.
