« These microscopic ghosts contain a reservoir of carbon estimated at a staggering 662 gigatons—200 times greater than the amount stored in all living plants and animals—that could come back to haunt us if unleashed from its watery grave as planet-warming carbon dioxide. »
...yes, Scientific American, yes it could. That's exactly what we're doing. -.-

Ironically it's humans pumping up these carbon stores (oil) and burning them that's causing all this.
