Yeah, I would be worried about anything nasa said, this from the organisation that has changed / dropped the names of celestial objects because...... well they are woke ( nasa, not the names ) they are long past being a scientific body, now instead of trying to solve any mysteries they have gone to the dark side and concern themselves with being relevant to a loud minority.

I bet the siberian inuits are not happy about it either.

This doesn't surprise me Ed, NASA managed to kill Kubric when their eyes were wide shut.
Now that they're woke, there's no stopping them.

As an aside and not mentioned in the article are that they're have been fires in Siberia for many centuries, very intense ones too, even paradoxically around/surrounding some of the coldest periods we've known such as around even the times of the Maunder Minimum.

The problem now is the 410ppm CO2 concentration we have. It looks like it's out of our hands. There seem to be a big reservoir of combustibles in the area when the permafrost subsides that can and will finish the job. Better get cracking imaging while we still can. I wonder what this summer is going to look like. We had some welcome rain this winter. Maybe it'll get us over.
