I would say poorly. We're not doing great. That is likely to be a big factor in global climate change. As a matter of fact, it's a big factor in the crisis, and we have very little information about it.
When the permafrost melts, it turns into water. Some of the methane goes into the ocean or the rivers and is absorbed, and some of it goes into the atmosphere. This is a very powerful material, and it's going to be driving the climate up there. We need to be able to measure it better. There are some satellite-based systems that exist and an optical-based system that exists, but we have not spread them over Canada.
It will be important that we have an understanding of these CH4 emissions, or methane, for our own survival. It's an existential problem.
