VOICED : Thawing permafrost climate changes ticking time bomb

The video discusses the rapid melting of permafrost in the northern hemisphere, particularly in the Great Canadian North, due to global warming. It highlights the environmental impact, such as the formation of ponds and the release of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane. Researchers are actively monitoring these changes to understand their implications. The video emphasizes the potential future risks and the need to address global warming to mitigate these effects.
