If there's one thing I hate about Hacker News its the rampant climate change denialism/do-nothing-ism.
You can pretend global warming isn't happening, or you can open your eyes and look at the evidence of massive change and extremely dangerous positive feedback loops.
If this methane all escapes, we are pretty much screwed.
I wouldn't say "denialism/do-nothing-ism" is unique to HN... If anything, there's a ton of people who say someone needs to do something about climate change... but they themselves are oh too busy driving to work and being in front of an electronic device all day.
