Our Ignorance, Hubris and Greed (IHG) concerning our web of life is causing a REAL STINK in the heavens via methane. A gas produced by bacteria breaking down rotting flesh be it of flora or fauna, be it happening at present or in the past and stored as hydrates or as clathrates as know by some. Have you seen the noctilucent clouds overhead? All signs of a dying planet. Is it warm enough for ya yet? Yeah sure, everything is okay, move along now, nothing to see here.
