The icy caps of our planet hold a frozen secret. Inside the permafrost, within the Arctic Circle, vast amounts of carbon are stored. And as the climate changes and the world heats, many fear this could lead to a tipping point, where thaw causes a viscous cycle of greenhouse gas emissions. But... Could it? Is permafrost really a tipping element for our planet? And how should we be keeping permafrost frozen - to protect ourselves from as much global warming as possible?
