- Happy Marie Antoinette day!
What a shit article. Seriously. It's just babble about methane and weird comparisons and not about why it would be "twice as bad" (not big) or I just gave up after 8 pages of crap.

Why do people upvote this kind of crap?
- What a shit comment. Seriously.
  
  So what's the "twice" in the article eh?
Yes, these pipelines are destroying the planet. They should all be destroyed but preferably in a safe way.
Is nord stream still leaking? I forgot about this.
- As far as I know valves were shut quickly. The big leak was a result of remaining gas (under pressure?) between the valves that could escape. It was a lot, as the pipes run for 100s of km under the sea, so even with valves shut there was just a lot gas in the pipe.
