> Do you really think anyone in Siberia, one if the poorest places in the world, cares about carbon emissions?

Unfortunately they care. For now only poor face real consequences of climate change. They are to poor to mitigate its effects.

It seems Siberia is one of the places where living conditions might actually improve https://eos.org/articles/climate-change-could-make-siberia-a... (the "big bog" scenario does cast doubt on that -- e.g. existing structures may collapse).

There are sinkholes appearing due to permafrost melting and ice keeps ground solid, otherwise there would be mud(and sinkholes) all over the place.
