Methanhydrate, is not only a clean fuel, its use is
bearingalso some difficulties and even dangers to our
environment,likeit is a 30 times worse greenhouse gas
than carbondioxidandcould, if getting into the athmosphere
in great amounts, endanger our worlds climate. |

For example an earthquake or a vulcanoe underneath an methanhydrate field would shake or heat the ice and unstable the solid condition, and also if a warm current influenced a field, gas could escape, including more toxic gases than only methane, which exists also partly in the icey
substance. |

Some people say the global warming would only affect the upper
layers of the sea and first the polar ice would melt and by this the hydrostatic pressure on the methanhydrate would increase, and so
the system would stay stable by itsself.

But methanhydrate occure also beneath the sea under the
earth and it also stables rocks underthe watersurface and could
if removed accuse tsunamis, when underwater mountains should
slide down. |
