Methane is 30 time worse than CO2. We see the methane that comes up through the water but not what comes straight out of the ground. An estimated 205 Billion tonnes(226 Billion tons) from just the permafrost, not to mention the warming ocean has a shitload of Methane clathrate it may give up.
I'd guess the tipping point is nigh.
