No its not


The methane isn't trapped in the arctic ice.

There is a lot of methane generated by rotting vegetation in the arctic
tundra. As the ice melts, it is being released. Methane is, what, 74
times as potent a greenhouse gas as CO2?

Stupid boy

Its trapped on the sea floor, mainly by pressure and it isn't leaking
anymore than normal ATM.
Maybe we should mine it and burn it as the CO2 is less harmful.
