The results have important implications for Earth’s climate because methane is about 25 times more powerful than carbon dioxide when it comes to warming the planet over a long period. The study is the first to attempt to account for methane escaping from abandoned mines. Mines are getting deeper every year. —Nazar Kholod.

Global emissions of carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels have risen again after a three year hiatus, according to new analysis from the Global Carbon Project ( GCP ). According to the GCP, global emissions from all human activities will reach 41 billion tonnes in 2017, following a projected 2% rise in burning fossil fuels.

Instead of accumulating as peat, which eventually was transformed into coal, the great bulk of plant biomass decayed and was released into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. So the evolution of white rot is a very important event in the evolution of carbon cycle. We’re hoping this will get into the biology and geology textbooks.
