The first active methane gas leak in the Antarctic offshore field has alarmed scientists.
Euronews reported about it.
According to scientists, global warming will inevitably accelerate as leaks increase due to the environmental crisis.
Thus, methane is a gas that raises the atmospheric temperature faster than carbon dioxide.
A study published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B found that some microorganisms neutralized the gas, but it took five years for these microorganisms to emerge.
The leak was first discovered by divers in 2011. However, scientific research on the issue began in 2016.
Although the methane gas leak is not new, the findings of the methane leak have raised concerns among scientists.
