re...Permian...

look into the..PETM.....the Paleocene...Eocene .Thermal Max....(55 million years BP)

britannica.com

Hansen spends a bit of time explaining the .....outpouring of the sea bed methane...clathrates

the chemical signatures are easier to read.....from that that...much more recent time...
.....................................................

for Hansen...todays coastal clathrate melt...is considerably ...more worrisome...........

as there is 30,000,000 years of...cold storage methane...waking up.....

where as pre PETM...there was not nearly so much......................
..........................................................................
