Resumo: The text discusses the issue of permafrost thaw in the Arctic and boreal forest regions due to climate change. Vladimir Romanovsky, a geophysicist, has been monitoring permafrost in Alaska and Russia since the 1970s. The melting permafrost poses challenges for the global carbon budget and infrastructure in the region, impacting the lives of the approximately 5 million people living in the permafrost zone. The text highlights the importance of understanding the interplay between carbon emissions, permafrost thaw, and the urgent need for solutions to address the impacts on infrastructure and communities in the affected regions.
