One Russian ‘expert’ blames global warming (gullible warming).


An urgent expedition will leaves tomorrow to probe this unusual – and rare – geographical occurrence,a giant crater that has appeared in gas-rich northern Siberia.

Extraordinary aerial images show a mysterious hole which experts say may be up to 262 feet wide, in the Yamal Peninsula of northern Russia,’ The Siberian Times has reported.

The cause of the hole’s sudden appearance is not yet known. However, speculation includes a meteorite,  a UFO, even global warming.

Anna Kurchatova from the Sub-Arctic Scientific Research Centre,  says the cause is more likely to be global warming releasing gases under the surface, which then explode like a champagne cork.

I wonder if Anna will start getting more funding now?
