As global temperatures rise, large areas of permanently frozen ground in the arctic begin to thaw. This thawing releases significant amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, which was previously trapped in the frozen soil. Considering the effect of greenhouse gases on atmospheric temperature, which statement best analyzes the long-term consequence of this process?
