A giant crater appeared in Yamal in Russian Siberia.

The word "yamal" is roughly translated "end of the world" meaning the middle of nowhere, a sparcely inhabited peninsula sticking up toward the Arctic Sea.
In any case, the most obvious probable cause of the sudden appearance of a crater such as this would be a meteor strike. But no, it has to somehow be global warming, postulating some never before seen natural explosion involving methane and salt water. This is before anyone has been able to go on site and look at the thing close up.
Temperatures in Yamal have been increasingly slowly since 1960, but it's nothing out of the ordinary and not as high as it was in the 1930s. Link
Here is a partial list of the things blamed on global warming.
