@davetroy@toad.social Has the thawing of the Russian permafrost and its effects on infrastructure (for example massive sinkholes) ever appeared in any of these bulletins? That is, do they try to spin that somehow? The situation must be pretty obviously bad to the Russian experts by now.

@brillenfux@mastodon.social No mention of that specific problem, but in general their view is that warming is good because it will open up more Arctic shipping options. They see this as an area of strategic future interest and as securing Russia's sovereignty. Climate damage is viewed as a Western preoccupation.
